    i will drop it down to 45. but this is the third set of tires on my truck and I only have 60K. The first OEM set 255/70/R18 set and only lasted 25k cause I left the psi at 32 and the shoulder wore out, then the second set I stayed with the same size went up on the psi to 38 and they lasted about 28k with the should wear. The second set were wranglers AT's. This set I went up to 275/70/R18 and my thinking was since they are rated for 80 psi, then 60 would be perfect, right now the ride is not to bad but I will try the 45 psi.

    Keep in mind you don't need E rated tires. Unless you do a lot of heavy towing and even then E rated still isn't all that necessary.

    I will be the first to admit I am not a tire wizard, and I really do appreciate all the in site.

    The reason I went with the E rated tires
    1- I was tired (no pun intended) of the shoulder wearing out, on two sets and no one around here could tell me how to fix it. (And it was not the aliment.) No matter what the PSI I ran in them the sidewalls would collapse, So I went up two sizes to make the truck look better and went with the E rated tires.
    2- I got a steal of a deal on this set, paid less then $800 dollars to have them installed, balanced and dispose of the old tires.

    what brand and size would you have gone with?
