I am running 32, the ride is great
for what it is worth, after airing down to wheel, the ride improved a lot when I aired back up

I took my tires back in to discount and as I suspected my right rear tire was out of balance. Now everything is very smooth!

I think I will continue to run 28 psi (cold). After they are warmed up the pressure will go up 2-3 lbs.

Love these MT/R's!

Default 35"x12.5"x15" on 15"x8" wheel : 26psi cold , after warm up 30~31psi

Tire shop set it to 35 psi cold : Was only making 70~80% contact.
After reset to 26psi cold and ran about 1000 mile, no contact on half of end tire thread == 95% contact.

Will do the chalk test to see the wear out on cold and hot.
And also use the distance between rotations to deliver average rolling diameter for new setup on tire diameter - speedo correction
