RE: Michelin Load & Inflation Tables
Guys, keep in mind that you are looking at the load chart for 9" wheels at the start of this thread. Per Michael's comments, he has 8.25" wheels on his 87. You need to use the alternate chart from Michelin for the load factors on the 315/80 with the 8.25" wheels. On that chart, 100psi gets you 13,820 for singles, 105psi gets you 14,380. So Michael would need approximately 103psi on the steers to have 14,000 on the steers, per that chart. The 8.25 load chart is on page 87 of the Michelin book, but I have it in pdf format and can't seem to copy the chart to include it here.

BTW, I am running mine at 110 on the front with the 8.25 and the 315/80. (My normal rides are a Hummer or a Corvette, so I don't really understand a soft ride anyway! LOL)
