My Tires are 24x12-12. The RimGuard fill chart (75% fill) says 8 gallons per tire for 24x12-12 (7 gal per tire for 23x10.5-12). I don't remember if I put 7 or 8 gallons per tire, but at 8.3lb/gal (density of water) either way it would be over 100 lbs, and yes my valve stems bleed air at 12 o'clock.
