    Does anyone know what’s the lowest tire pressure I can run with the BBS trd pro wheels and 35s and not slip off the bead?

    There is no set pressure, it will depend on the terrain, your speed, conditions, etc. Generally double digits, but again that will depend on how you drive and the speed. 18-20psi in terrain like sand, mud offers much better traction. You might drop it down to 15 or lower for slick rocks and to soften the ride but you will need to reduce speed. If you run beadlocks you can get down into single digits if needed.

    and of course it would depend on your truck and configuration. Have heavy bumpers, fully loaded, winch and more requires more pressure to support the load.

    That’s going to depend on the terrain, speed, and driver input more than the wheel. 12-15 is about as low as I’m comfortable going and I’m usually closer to 20.

    ETA my truck weighs 7,000lbs.

    Thank you guys, just looking for general tolerances, I’m going to be playing in Idaho this May and we will be doing everything from sand dunes to wooded back country trails, maybe a little snow in higher elevations, I do not have bead lockers so I don’t want to go too low and pop the tires off the wheels

    Like the others have stated, I air down to around 18-20 psi on my BBS Pro wheels. Haven't had any issues. But, definitely wouldn't expect any unless it was real low.
