I've had the same question a while back for 30" BFG tyres, and most of the answers varied from 35 - 40 psi which is way too much in my opinion. I'm running my 30" BFG's on 28 psi rear and 30 psi front and no problems at all. Have been running them for about 6 000 km now.

I don't know what all you guys in the States complain about with XJ's overheating...unless we've got different radiators in the export XJ's. I'm running my XJ here in South Africa in temperatures often exceeding 30 - 35 deg C and never a problem overheating. Temperature rises to 100 deg C...

Love your rig, wish I had a silver one too!

Thanks guys. I still think 40psi is a bit much for 30" tyres though. If I inflate anything over 35 psi, the shoulders don't touch the ground.

Whoa! 40 psi, that's 275 kPa, can't imagine what a bone jarring ride that must be! 35 psi already feels too hard for me! I'll hang on a while longer and have a look at what happens to the treadwear. :peace: I don't think XJ's have enough weight to justify those kinds of pressure. Toyota...
