I would run 40psi.

I ran 275/70/18 KO2 on my 2016 and per Discount Tire charts, it was set at 41psi.

I was pleasantly surprised. Went fishing today and spent about 3 hours on the highway. At 70mph, I could hear a little road hum and felt a little vibration that wasn’t there with the street tires, but I expected much worse from such an aggressive tread. Around town, the ride is slightly stiffer, but again, not by much. I knew going in there would be on-road trade-offs for off-road peace of mind, but it wasn’t as big a deal as I thought it would be. No regrets.

Shouldnt have any vibrations if balanced properly. This is the smoothest AT tire I've had, and quietest!

I had vibrations in my ko2's and they were hard to balance.

Vibration is probably the wrong word. I don’t feel anything like improper balancing ... just can tell it’s a different tread hitting the pavement. I agree ... very quiet.
