Ignore that advice and use the mfg recommendations - every time I have
had new tyres fitted they try to get me to use 30psi all round - yet my
4Runner needs, as per Toyota, 24-26 front and 34-36 rear!
With 30 all round it is dangerous to drive, handles like a pig
The tyre fitting guys seem to have a mindset on this 30 all round
