Default LT tire pressure

So I finally replaced the Wrangler SRA's on my truck, with some Kumho Road Venture AT KL78's. OEM size of LT275-65-18. They look really good on the truck, nice and chunky.

You guys with LT tires, what pressure are you running them at (when unloaded) and getting good, even wear?

I pull a 8000# trailer sometimes, obviously I'll need to air up the rears then, but unloaded driving? Thoughts?

I've been running my Toyo OCII's at 50psi unloaded and I bump it to 55psi when towing.

For daily driving 42 to 44 psi cold is usually a good place to start with LT rated tires on a F-150.

For my factory LT tires Ford says 40. That is what I usually always run anyway.
