205 70 15 96 h. The size is less important than the load rating which is a code expressed by the 4th number in the sequence I just posted. The higher the load number the less pressure you need for the optimum performance of the tyre. An all terrain will probably be something like a 100 or 102 and will need less pressure than my road pattern. But it also depends on the weight of the specific vehicle, Ermintrude is relatively light weight and needs less air than one with winches or timber storage decks in the back etc.

Then as suggested start with 22 or 23 and go from there. You're wanting it to feel smooth but not floaty. If they're too soft it will squirm an wobble over bumps and holes if they're too hard it will crash and bounce. You're wanting the happy medium.
