I air my Chippewa tires to 60, they are 32x4.5 WW2 era tires.

Looking for the proper air pressure for the above tire?

These are old Seiberling tires.
Due for replacement.

Many thanks!

Those were darned good tires back in their hey-day. They were literally the most round, well balanced tire on the market, they seldom needed the balance weights so commonly used. If I recall correctly they had a distinct look to them also...with what I'd call a small "lip" extending outward from where the sidewall met the tread. Dad had a set on his '65 Buick Wildcat and they sure rolled smooth. This was just before he then went to radials when they hit the market.

I run 45 - 50 lbs. - TT's ride so rough anyway !
