Official pressure is 28psi, most of us run 33psi as it wears, handles, grips and feels a lot better.

Yep give them a try at 33, I run my 31s at that and ran my 265/70/15s at that before, tyre wear was pretty even (except the fronts but that was because i had a worn steering idler which I fixed before fitting the 31s.

I run 31-32 in my BFG A/T's - seems to be the best for me, others go a bit higher and like that. We accidentally ran 40 for a while (thank you BP) and that wasnt too bad. Try a few out and see what you think...

I inflated my tyres in a garage last week. When I checked em with my pocket guage today they were at 38PSI. I had been driving on dry tarmac and noticed they were wearing a little in the middle.
I took the truck to Supetyres in Luton today and had the full alignment job done. It feels like a different truck now. A guy recognised me and asked why I didn't take it to my bruvs. I told hime that he won't charge me and cos I'm not paying I would keep going to the back of the que!!!!!!!

If reccommended pressure is 28 all round, will running at 33 constitute an MOT/NCT fail?

Don't think its checked on an NCT, mine has a DOE as its commercial, had 34PSI in mine, no problem.

Nope - it isnt checked. And 28psi is "recommended" pressure, not "maximum" pressure
