I checked and there are Load Range C, so I don't understand. Can I try to put 28 or 30psi cold on the road ?

There is nothing wrong with trying lower psi. There really is no hard and fast right/wrong, just tradeoffs between tire wear, fuel economy, and comfort.

OK I will try. I have the impression that the jeep bounces and does not absorb the bumps of the road. If you have any advise...

What shocks are you using with that lift? A lot of the AEV lifts come with Bilstein 5100s and those are a pretty stiff shock. Not sure if you added shocks when you did the lift or used brackets to retain the old shocks.

I used the shocks provided by AEV, Bilstein 5100s I guess.
Currently I have only a heavy rear bumper with carrier tire but the goal is to add steel bumper on front with winch and skid plate. Maybe with the additional weight, it's gonna be better....
