a great story - also, what psi do you run in your aftermarket 19x10.5's
So last night I am hauling *** by the pentagon and i notice my tail feels a little soft in turns. so I get home and im walking up to my house and turn for a sec and notice my rear left tire is looking low....so i go squeeze it and it says "hello i am out of air" so I drive to the local exxon on jefferson-davis highway and call AAA. they say "sorry sir but you will need to wait 3 hrs for a wrecker service" so i am like well **** that. so i grab my spare and my wrench and get on my knees and realize the RAYS lugs do not work with the stock wrench!!! so im like **** im gonna be here til 6am considering its already 3am. i walk out by JD-highway and notice a tow truck and flag him down. these guys were great. first off - one was a complete JDM pervert who was nuting over my bronze volks - the other was like "i only like american cars" nevertheles by the end of our transaction (them letting me use their four-way) the american lover says "i love your car, if you need a tow well help you out." well i ended up not needing a tow bc of the spare, i take my car into my tuner, Martin Motorsports, and we discover that one of the TPMS sensors snapped off the valve stem!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this caused a slight leak, coupled with the DC roads , the bead on the tire broke and it basically reached an equilibrium pressure of about 12 psi (not safe!) so now that i've got a new TPMS sensor in there, and im at about 45 psi all the way around - im going to just let the air pressure out as soon as yall tell me what is the right pressure.
p.s. i got about 3 hrs of sleep and now am going to work. shoot me.

The rule of thumb we use is 45 psi for 25-30 series, 40 psi for 35 series, 35-40 psi for 40 series and higher. Hope that helps. I run 43-45 psi in my 20x11 rears and 38-40 psi in my front 20x9.
