We were told to increase tyre pressure by 8 to 10% for towing so I put 37 in rear
Normal pressures for commander are a bit higher than the Cherokee..

I have towed for more than 35 years and I have always increased the rear tyre pressure in line with advice given from such sites as tyresafe.org etc
I find 1: it stiffens tyre wall 2: reduces sideways movement and makes it a more stable ride Also I think it depends on how much rear overhang you have as this increases the load on rear
So far this year we have towed over 2000 miles (leaving home march 11 )and have not had any towing issues in any weather (touch wood)and its Wales this week

Us too, I try and get the scooter (a pride colt nine) as far forward as possible in as many pieces as possible
But our rear overhang is longer than the grand Cherokee even though its the same chassis but with outriggers for the third row of seats...
Is yours the 3ltr crd?
