Default What tire psi for 35's?
Just got my 35/12.50/15 bfg km2's in Friday. When I was putting them on, they bounced better than most basketballs. I haven't checked the psi in them yet but I assume it's way to much. What are you guys running in them for the highway?

I run 30psi in my Toyos. I could go lower, but I don't mind the ride at 30.

I found that 28psi works well for me, but, I still have stock bumpers.

Go down to 28 or 30 and do a chalk test to fine tune.

I've always done the chalk test for driving around on the street.
