I would agree with most of this post. The door sticker is meant for OEM tires. Changing to a different tire most certainly will change optimal tire pressures, unless you stick with only OEM tires. Many of us swap to a different tire based on our needs/wants, and then the recommended pressures on the door sticker become moot.The door sticker is the federally mandated information that is supplied by the manufacturer and is specific to your vehicle, hence the Vin # on the sticker. This info is based on the vehicle specs such as gvwr and suspension specs. Changing tires to another brand does not change the vehicle specs such as weight. The sticker also states "cold " inflation specs so no need to calculate "hot" tire pressures.
