Cold weather, Recommended Tire Pressure

I have a 2010 TRX4 w/ 275/70R17 tires, it looks like you have the same vehicle. The sticker on the door states 37 psi, which is what I run. My tires do say 50 psi max. I have had many -0 weather and my TPMS has never gone off. I am not sure if the stock tires have nitro or not.

Get into the habit of checking your tires at least weekly. Run the same pressure year round, and it can be found on the door post. My post says 40, but I run 42 because that's where I get a 10% pressure rise hot/cold. Tires are rated to 44 on my truck.
You lose/gain approximately 1# of pressure, for every 10 degree F temperature change.

Nitrogen, for the most part, is a gimmick. True, your pressure won't fluctuate as much with temperature (it still will though). But, I've seen people advertise nitrogen inflated tires as increasing MPG. This is simply not the case, as long as your tires are properly inflated, with air or nitrogen, you will get the best mpg's. If you have free and easy access to nitrogen it is better. Its what we service aircraft components with at work.
