Default chalk test results question

I installed 35x1250x15 KM2s about 4000 miles ago. I've been driving them at around 25psi - based on the way they looked like they were wearing. I did a rotation and a chalk line test yesterday. Here's what they look like at 27 psi:

a thin strip of chalk left at the edges.
here's at 29 psi:

a definatly wider strip of chalk left.

How to interpret this? Is 29 too uneven? Is 27 good, or still too uneven? should I try 25?
thanks.

Remember you have 4000 on it already with a different psi. I have over 40000 on mine and tread is only half gone oh I run 30 psi and rotate every 3000. Give it some time and check again.
