Hi everyone!! I have 265-70-16's on my pathfinder. How much air should I put in the tires?

Should be 35 psi cold. There should be a sticker in the driver's door jamb that states the recommended tire pressures.

I run 37 psi front 35 psi rear. Seems to be nicely balanced between steering and comfort there and my tire wear is very flat across the tread.

If they are P tires, then 35psi is correct.

LT tires would be more...

I have the same setup like yours, and it really feels more comfortable.
