quote kirkp:

IF regular replacement is done, running them at the rated pressure even though lightly loaded, there won’t be an issue with excess center tread wear. Anyway, just some random thoughts and enjoy the reading.

Hi Kirk,

I do a lot of driving pulling around light weight aluminum boats at freeway speeds up to 70mph.

My experience is that rated pressure almost always results in more center wear.

Mine are usually loaded at 35% to 50% of rated weight as printed on the sidewall.
