35 lbs?
I put 45 in mine before I put everything back together and it looks half flat.
Maybe I need a new gauge.
Oh yeah, Welcome to the forum!!

You are supposed to put 35psi in BOTH halves, most forget to fill the bottom half.

As it turns out, my tire gauge IS bad. I checked it against another one and it was nearly 20 pounds off!
Filled the tire to 35 pounds and it works great.
