Do you have a 1500? 2500? 3500? What load range are the tires?

hi Ben i have 1500, and the only info i can find on the tyres is, apart from the above is, 2ply 40 psi MAX and (104S) and a circled E4 max load 900 kg

AND ON THE REAR Load range E max 80 psi cold, thanks again, Mitch

Looks like you said 1500 the first time That's kind of an odd setup to have on that truck, different sizes and load ratings. I'd run at least 35psi all around, Dodge recommends 41 psi on those smaller sizes (similar to the front tire) but the tire only takes 40. when you change tires, I'd probably do something like a 245/70 all around.
