I've gone with Metzlers front and rear. Their pressures are a higher than what HD specs in the manual. Is it better to follow the tire mfr or the MoCo's advice? i can't remember the results of the Explorer rollover trials :-)

I just put a Metzler on the back of mine & the dealer said that the Metzler Rep. told them to run the pressure (back) at 50 # I thought that was alot and might give a very hard ride but that is not the case at all... it feels very nice.
With Dunlops I had 38 frt/ 40 back 2 up.
