I have turf tires on the B2920.
What is a good all around air pressure (front and rear) for cutting grass (MMM) and some FEL work with a weight box on. Do they have to be at max pressure or a little softer for some flex.

I would go with recommend tire pressure in owners manual

I don't have terfs on the rear I have a wide W tread "tera Max" I believe and terfs on the front. I run 8 to 10 on the rear and what is stated on the tire on the front.

10psi except when using the FEL. Then 20 in the front.

Check that the manual matches the ply rating on tire, and that tire manufacturer matches what is in manual. This was not same for me. When USING FEL, I run max pressure on front tires as listed on front tires. When mowing, I use lower pressure as listed in manual. Philip.

Tks for the input.
While the manual states 23 psi front and 20 rear. I have played with it for the last couple months and have the fronts at 20 psi and the rears are at 15 psi. I was thinking I was going to light on pressure but some others are on the same page.
As I do a lot of mix work like some others I think the fronts are close but I will play with the rears a little more.

Dam I thought I was going to light on pressure but again this forum has proven it's value.
