35/12.50/17 Ridge Grappler E-rated tire wear

I tried searching for this but didn’t find the exact answer.

I just recently installed the stock Rubi wheels 7.5“ with e-rated 35/12.5/17 Ridge Grapplers. My tire pressures are @ 25psi cold and the tire is still crowning. I’m going to purchase new wheels either in 17x8.5 or 17x9 to help relax the sidewalks some, preferably the 8.5. Nitto recommends 8.5-11 I believe.

My question is anyone running an 8.5 inch wide wheel with the 35/12.5 ridge grappler and if so, what psi and how’s the tire wear, etc. Thanks

This is at 9k miles, they are going to last a long long time.. they are solid Offroad, but sidewalk is too stiff, wish they flexed more aired down.. and it’s a stiff ride on road.. but not much noise ... and they are tough no chunking at all... but honestly my biggest issue is they are too heavy.. really feel the Jeep lugging the tires around... great tire.. just stiff and heavy...

Great thanks. You’re right they are heavy but, really quiet and I think they’ll last a long time. What pressure are you running?

I run them about 35/36 primarily to keep the light off, they seem to be wear evenly
