I just went and checked the tire pressure. All are between 30 - 35 psi. Does anyone have a recommended safe tire pressure?
I definitely did not do this when I installed my lift... 
I'll be doing it tonight.
I made a mistake when installing my lift. You need to loosen all control arm bolts and track bar bolts. Then bounce the bumpers at ride height with the tires on the ground. Then re-torque all bolts and re-torque after 400 miles. If you didn't do this it will make a difference
I'll be doing it tonight.

The load index should be on your tire, the stock rubi tires are a load indes 121, so per the chart at 32 psi they are rated fr 2557 lbs of weight.
Goodyear duratracs in a 315x70x17 are a 127 load index, so to carry the same 2500 lbs the tire should be at 25 to 26 psi. The tires will also wear better if inflated properly like this.

I had the R/C on my 09, and it had a really rough ride on city streets. I installed a Teraflex 2.5 coil and shock lift on my 2011 and my wife commented on how nice the JK rides over our 09. No issues with rough ride on city streets at all.

I walked into AEV and bought them there, I both Northridge and Quadratec have them, only $100.00 just bolt on.
FYI the pasenger side exhaust needs to be pried out of the way to remove one of the OEM bolts, it takes over 100lbs of force otherwise less than a 2 hour job basic tools.
this and the high steer is the best bang for the buck
