Default Air down on stock SRAs??

I have the stock SRAs for now on the 17" moab wheels. What would you guys say is the safest PSI to air down to? I went to uwharrie today and aired them down to around 25 not wanting to go too low afraid of breaking a bead.

Thanks man!!! I plan on going back out there maybe next weekend so I will give 20 a try and see how it does. This is my first jeep and this is the first time I have had it off road and all I can say is WOW. Granted I didn't try to do anything spectacular but I was super impressed at the capabilities being pretty much stock.

Yeah bro just make sure not to try to do too more much off a Sharpe turn at high speeds umm and be careful with your side walls because they rip really easy.

What trails did you hit? We go out there as often as possible!

20 PSI seems to work good for me. Also disconnecting the swaybar makes a huge difference.
