Per the AMD Zodiac 601XL POH for 500x5 4 ply tires the T.P. is 30 psig.
You can get the AMD XL POH on the Zenith web site.

That is correct for the 4 ply tires but according to the build manual the kit comes with 6 ply tires.

AMD says 30 psi. ZAC says 50 psi. I split the difference and use 40 psi.

Jay, ZAC says air to 2/3 rim above ground for the HD and HDS. (2/3 tire
rim distance to outside of tire) Of course that is 1200 lb gross vs
1320 for the XL. On my HDS I found 2/3 to be 18 psi. OK for unimproved
runway, I guess. I find 25 psi is just right. 50 psi seems a bit
overpressure to me.
