* Specific Tire Size: The sticker on your driver's side doorjamb will list the recommended tire pressure for your *specific* tire size. This is the most important place to look.
* Load: Are you carrying a heavy load in the truck bed? If so, you'll need to inflate your tires to a higher pressure than the sticker suggests (usually specified on the sticker itself).
* Temperature: Tire pressure increases with temperature. Check your tires when they're cold (before driving).
Where to Find the Correct Information:
1. Driver's Side Doorjamb Sticker: This sticker is your primary source of information. It will show the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle when lightly loaded.
2. Tire Sidewall: The maximum pressure for your tires is printed on the sidewall of each tire. Never exceed this maximum pressure.
In short: Don't rely on a generic answer. Check your doorjamb sticker first! That sticker provides the most accurate and safe inflation pressure for your specific 2002 Chevy Avalanche.
