35 psi vs 37 psi gas mileage

I started running 37 PSI (as opposed to 35) all the way around and man my gas mileage has gotten significantly better.

Just thought I would mention it, figure I could save somebody a few miles between fill ups.

I run 40+ in mine....

Handles better and helps the tires wear longer and better mileage. I have 18" wheels. The ride is fine at this pressure.

I run about 38, and can't really notice any difference. I'll bump it up to 40 and see.

i was running mis llantas a cuarenta y dos lbs. and now my tires are almost totally bald in the middle of the tread, but the gas mileage was at its best. since then i run anywhere from 37 - 40 lbs. just to get the tire to even out the wear...

I've run 38 psi for the past few months and have seen a mild improvement in gas mileage! By the way Prometheus, several guys I know have complained about center tire wear at "cuarenta y dos libras por pulgada cuadrada!"

What's with the Spanish here? How about English so everyone knows what you speak of? Last I knew it used to be the official language of the USA.
