New BX25d Tire Inflation Pressure

[Johnkn]

My manual on my new BX25d states 17psi for the rear tires and 22 for the fronts, but I thought I recall seeing a max pressure on the front tire of 100+. What's the recommended pressure? Thank you...

I'd follow the manual which should have recommendations for each tire type/size. Normally if it's R4 tires and you're doing front loader work, the manual recommends numbers that are close to or match the max inflation of the tires.

No way it was 100psi for the fronts -- the 100+ number you saw was probably in kPa, not psi. Look closer for the equivalent psi rating on the tire. They always put both on the tires.

s219 is correct 22 psi in the fronts. Checked mine today - 2370 though. Same tires.

Ok, thanks guys, appreciate the help...

If you are just mowing with it I found by letting some pressure out of the tires sure did help the ride.....just remember to air them back up before you put the loader and backhoe back on.
