You should try 35-36 psi.
But even if you run your tires at 42psi, there should not be any vibration....
Just a rough ride, meaning you will feel every bump in the road, due to little flex in the tire.

If you have 35" tires, the sweet spot for those will be around 28psi. The Nittos are a load range E tire and are heavy and won't flex well. Made more for heavy trucks that tow. I run my Toyos (basically same as your Nittos) at 28 and it rides much better than 40psi which the tire shop had them at when I bought them.
might want to pull all the wheels and tires off and check to see if the tire shop left on the brake rotor assembly clips. As the Jeep rolls down the assembly line there are clips attached to hold the brake rotors on. they are put on the lug bolts, usually 2 or 3 a rotor. The factory wheel has a relief in the back of it that goes around these clips so it isnt an issue. most aftermarket wheels do not, so they do not mount flush to the rotor and create the vibration that you are talking about.
this is from a mustang - but its the same deal

You have 37's. One of the benefits of the Nittos over Toyos in that size is Nittos come in load range D from what I understand. I have no clue what load range 33's have for the Nittos but I know the 35's are E and are super heavy and do not flex as well as a D load.

Thanks, Ill try that
What you shoud worry about first is getting the right psi. Lot's of people use the chalk test where you draw a line across the tire and then watch for how evenly it wears off the tire. That will help get the psi to a point where the tires wear evenly. Once you get that, you can worry about how to deal with the TPMS if it happens to go off.

Response to trail grapplers with fuel mavericks
Well at least it looks good.
I am looking into doing the same to mine! Yours looks great and I have searched ALL over the forum for someone with the same idea! What size lift, tires, and wheels do you have?
I thought about either the Terra Grapplers or Trail Grapplers with 33's and a 2.5" Teraflex BB- any thoughts on look and ride anyone?? (It is my everyday driver)
