What is everyone running their psi on these e rated tires? I have been running 40psi and was told that is low from someone on the forum. I went to Discount tire and they told me the psi was right and could run up to 80psi if towing. My question is what is the proper psi on a half ton with E rated tires not towing????

I run 42-44 on my Load Range C tires. I would probably run a bit more than 40 in Load Range E. Just because a Load Range E tire can be inflated to 80 psi, doesn't mean 40 psi has the same capacity as 40 psi in a Load Range C or even a P tire. There was a chart somewhere I am trying to find that showed different load ranges and their capacity at certain inflation pressures. It wasn't exact as this but say a Load Range E tire has a capacity of 3000lbs inflating it to only 40 psi made it's capacity only 1500 lbs where as a P tire might have 2200 lbs at 40 psi and that's it.

40psi should be fine considering that these trucks only come with D/8 ply tires. For comparison sakes on my 2004 Doge Cummins Crew Cab Long Bed I ran my E-Rated MT's at 65/68psi

Thanks guys, I was told to run no lower than 60 or I'll get bad wear. So far 7500 in they look ok but then again 7500 is nothing especially when you rotate every 3000

Been wondering the same thing. Discount also inflated mine to 40 psi but the fronts almost look a little low. I have read where a couple guys are running around 55 in the front and 50 in the rear. I'm going to play around with it the coming weeks and see how the ride is affected.

Go down to page 13.

While they don't have your specific tire size listed it is pretty easy to conclude that at 40psi the tires load capabilities match that of 8 ply tires.

to be honest the ride is great. The only thing is the tires are meaty so as your start to accelerate from a stop like you get that roughness. But the ride is plush and smooth. My brother has a 2500 Chevy diesel and when I ride in his with the same timers it's a tank. The suspension is stiff and you feel everything. My truck however kept the factory ride.

It been a while, but here is my light bars I installed. 30" behind the grille and curved 54" up top:

I have always had all black. So I decided to switch it up and try the Iridium, pretty happy the way it turned out. My biggest complaint about these new trucks, is the damn paint is ridiculously thin!

 

Which lift mods do you have? I like that it's lift but not leaning backwards like almost everyone else's lol.

I'm running a McGaughys 7-9" Black SS lift set at 7". 20x9 -12 Rockstar II's and 35x12.50 MTZs.

 

I don't like the SoCal look either.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
