CelticNomad Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 What is the tyre pressure when you get back to the Tarmac? Big G Tarmac is an optional extra, I forgot to add it! 2004 Discovery 'The Celtic Shamal' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutbolt Posted September 7, 2011 Report Share Posted September 7, 2011 Drive on sand at 12 -15 psi and road on 30 psi, and never forget to inflate on road as at high speed with low pressure tire may burst or cut the sidewall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticNomad Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Would agree with nut bolt there, found 12 psi best in the sand with a Disco, but I run 35 around town in the summer and drop to 30 in the winter due to the tyres being harder Big G Tarmac is an optional extra, I forgot to add it! 2004 Discovery 'The Celtic Shamal' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nutbolt Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 All four same pressure, no problem. Slight difference mention in Owners Manual is because of load variation. And i bet it can have difference of 10 psi. Usually it mention difference of 2 -3 psi (32 - 35). Which in real life people square it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using 26-34 and after stucking in the sand for half an hour I had to deflate my tires and then I inflated them to 30-34 it seems far better than 26-34 setup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutbolt Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 For sand keep it 15 psi, you will love it. Small typo above: And i bet it can't have difference of 10 psi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CelticNomad Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 I use the same pressure on all four corners. That said I old disco had a heavy duty steel bumper and winch so I did run slightly higher in that one Big G Tarmac is an optional extra, I forgot to add it! 2004 Discovery 'The Celtic Shamal' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
