What's your wheel width?

Trail grapplers are E range an you are running the psi way to high taken them down to 30-33psi I have 35s an I'm running 30psi an they are wearing great. I rotate every 5 every other oil change which is 6000 miles for me

I'm running a very light 2 dr with 35" Nitto Trail grapplers on a stock rubi rim. I run at 26PSI to get the tires to lay flat.

I run just around town and on the highway at 70mph.

I'm running my Nitto 285/70R/17's at 35 lbs. Did the chalk test at 30 lbs and it showed fine. However, i got sick of the tire presurre light coming on so I went back up to 35.
