I ran right at 37# in mine when at road temp they will read 40#. 8000 miles on 'em still no wear visable, little nubs on side are not wore to.Mine were Terra Grapplers. Took'em off when I got the Hankook 35's tires and16" wheels ,they are in storage for now.

tera grapplers and mud grapplers are very different tires. One is a mud terrain and one is an "all terrain". You really cannot use a street tire as an example of mud tire wear or vice verse. Which are we taling about the MT or AT?

I have Nitto Mud Grapplers. 35x12.5x18 I did the chalk test when I got them and have set them at 26#'s for the highway and I run them offroad at 12-14#'s. I have 35k on mine. They tend to get loud on the fronts when they are ready for rotation.

Hope this helps.
