I don't know if this has been posted before, but I just noticed 2 different recommended tire pressure labels on the door. One says 30 psi, and the other (the one with the GVWR) says 35 psi. Why would they do this...or is the first label not from the factory?

I was wondering the same thing. Thanks Fred. I thought it was there for the normal pressure rating for all cars with the Z-rated tire option...glad I found out otherwise lolSteve

the speed rated tires also have a load index. sometimes thats printed on the lable as well. ie: LI 87 which means... the tire is rated at that top speed (what ever the speed rating is) with 87% of the max load on the tire or less... if you exceed 87%, the speed rating goes down...
so dont do 149mph with 6 people in the car........

I mean, I suppose you could cram 2 dead bodies in the back somehow, but do they count as people? lolSteve
