Default Chalk Tested my tires- opinions please

I have never chalk tested to get the correct air pressure so i would like you opinion/ advice.
I just had some Nitto Trail Grapplers installed.
The tire place put them at 35 psi, and it made the jeep very flighty and not pleasant at all.
Here they are at 28 psi.

Is this right or do i need to lower even further?
I realized the picture is a little unclear- the inner and outter 1/2 inch did not rub off, the inside parts did.

FYI- 2010 2 door
