I put on a set of BFG A/T 285 55 20 and they are at 45 lbs. Of course the TPMS system says check tire pressure because it thinks they are over inflated. I read somewhere that the remote control door lock receiver will go to sleep if they are over inflated for too long. Anyone have any experience with this issue? Subsequently after about 12 hrs of slid driving it went to sleep on me and my TPMS says it needs service and each tire reads "--" and the key fobs stopped working... I pulled the fuse and it reset itself.

Anyone?

What kind of truck? Why are you running 45psi? I tried running 40 one time and my teeth were chatering!

Way to much for street. 32-35 perfectly fine. Over inflation will make the tire Stiff in the middle and make it balloon out causing Faster wear in the center of the tire
