32 lbs. sounds high for most tires. The right pressure depends on load, and many owners’ manuals include a load chart. Load charts also may be available on tire manufacture web sites. The wrong pressure can be dangerous and also reduce traction. High pressures also give a rough ride. It's a very good idea to check pressures regularly. With my turf tires, I run 14 rear and 16 front. The 16 actually is off the load chart (12 max), but higher front pressures are fairly common on loader equipped tractors. During the winter when I'm running lighter loaders, I use 12 rear and 10 front, which provides better traction on snow. ....

I run about 12 in the rear and 10 in the front. Unless you drive on pavement or concrete a lot, the lower pressure is better for traction. ....

I'm running 12 in the rear and 16 in the front on my B2710, unless I intend to be using the front end loader for heavy loads, in which case I boost the front ones to 24. ....
