    I have some aftermarket tires and wheels on my 2022 Trail edition. The pressure is higher for these tires and I like to run higher on the paved roads. However, I noticed the sensors they installed with these only read up to 55 psi. Are there sensors that will read higher?

    There is no tire that you should be running at 55+ psi on a 4Runner.

    On the real though as said previously, no tire on 4Runner should be at 55+ psi

    The sidewall is the max, not the recommended pressure. Most tires would need close to OEM pressures.

    I am guessing your rig rides like a brick and really only the center portion of the tire is touching the pavement?

    What brand, size and load rating is the tire? Wheels really don't matter...

    I have never had a pressure sensor that worked right (on 4-5 different vehicles and two sets of tires on the Blue Beast!)! I use the old "walk around and look" method. Have Discount Tire check my pressure before trips and check them when gassing every day or so.
