For the road my front tyres are 195/R14 at 20 PSI and the rear tyres are 235/R15 at 25 PSI.

For off road my front tyres are 165/R15 at 34 PSI (I should probally reduce this) and the rear tyres are 225/R15 at 30 PSI.

My suspension is rather soft so I don't get any wheel bounce with the higher tyre pressures on bumps. On sand I drop the rear down to 8 - 10 PSI.

on road I use about 14 psi front and 18 rear.
Off road I go 4-6 front and 8 - 12 rear depending on load and terrain.

This is 215 x 75 x15 front and 31 x 10.5 x 15 rear on 15 x 7" rims.
