Why 35 PSI

[Bronze4x4]

Everytime I take my tacoma to a dealership or tire shop they insist on setting PSI to 35 lbs. I always thought you go by the door jam PSI which states 30 PSI front/rear. So why 35? Am I wrong?

When I find a tire pressure I like. Every time it sees a shop I tell them DO NOT adjust the tire pressure. Can’t say why 35psi? Most often they pic 32psi..

I think it is to cut down on customer complaints. If they set the tire pressure to what is on the door jamb, and then temps drop and people get low pressure warnings, they whine. So I have found that most dealerships for a lot of brands routinely overinflate your tires.

Haha I just had this thought the other day. Took mine in for the 5k/6mo ToyotaCare visit with 30psi in the tires and left with 35 in them. Oh well
