Default Nitto Terra Grappler 275/60r20 psi, 35 max?!

Hello,

Just purchased a set of 275/60r20 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I went with this size because I didn't need the heavier LT tire. These are P rated and the tire says 35 max PSI? I checked and discount tire had them from 40-43. 35 seems fairly low, but I want to make sure they wear evenly.

Any recommendations or anyone with experience with these? Even at 40-43 they ride great. Looking for the best mpg and wear psi. Thanks for your help!

Here is a pic... If anyone is looking for a more aggressive tire, that fills the wheel well better, without killing mpg, I'd highly recommend. They only weigh 42 lbs each...

If the tire states 35 max, don't put more than 35 psi in them. You run the chance of tire failure-separation.

It says max load 2601 lbs at 35 PSI max pressure. I am assuming that is max pressure. Or is it max pressure if weighed down with the max load? Sorry for the dumb questions...

It's the max psi for the tire-and the max payload for the tire when inflated @35 psi.
