If you investigate on the sides of the tires there is a suggested air pressure setting that produces the lowest amount of rolling resistance for the best fuel mileage

    Yes I knew that, unfortunately, I cant see it even with a flashlight, so I thought someone might be able to help me out with the answer, but I guess not huh?

    31 psi is a safe setting then.

SOURCE: need to know the tire pressure for 01 XL1200C front and rear

Hi .... manual states 30 front & 36 rear, I find 36 front & 40 rear good for single & two up riding. Tyre pressures are measured when cold.

SOURCE: recomende tire pressure touring motorcycle

Generally I put the front and rear tires @ 40 psi. You get better gas mileage , plus it rolls better when you have to push it around, but you also get better tire wear. I would set your rear air suspension around 12 -15 psi.

SOURCE: tire pressure for stratoliner

For riding 2 up I recommend 38 front and 42 rear. Some riders have commented on some front wobble corrected by putting the front to 40 psi.

SOURCE: what is the correct tire

Look at the inside of the drivers front door. There will be a tire pressure inflation sticker. I do believe 30psi is normal for most newer GM "full size" cars.

Tire preasure varies by manufacturer. Correct preasure is on the sidewall of tire.
