I roll at 33 to 35psi on trucks/Jeeps. Good balance between ride and wear IMO.

Thats got to be the speed rating, not the load rating. What load rating are they? That determines the max psi, I have my d rated tires with max psi 65 at 40 psi and am monitoring tire wear to see if it needs modified.

Then the max psi is more than likely 80 and most seem to run around 40-45 psi.
