Rubi 33 KO2 owners. Where are you at with tire pressure? On road and offroad. Is 39 too high on roadway driving?

Stock steering dampener
35" k02's
33 cold
37-38 warm

Have not had one steering or ride issue in 37,438 miles. I'm guessing a minimum of 1/3 of those miles have been off road of all types. Rock crawling, mud, snow, speed, slow, sand, hardpack. Every time I get back in the freeway to come home it drives like your basic roadworthy family vehicle. Two previous Jeep's and multiple trucks thru the years. Have never had a comparable 4x4

Was running 32 on the mostly stock Rubi, cold weather in Arizona drove that down to about 29/20 in the morning. Still gets up to about 34 when on the highway (sets off the TPMS when starting though!)

37" Maxxis E rated. I run around 18-20 on road and down to 8-10 offroad.

Before all the hate comes for such low PSI, believe it or not 18 PSI on the road and I still do not contact the entire cross section of tread. I've done the dirty tire (same as chalk) test on my shop floor. Drives and handles great. Obviously all tires and vehicles are different but I usually run around 18-22psi for a mud terrain on a Jeep and get a good contact patch.

Even the stock BFG's at 35-40PSI is WAY too much IMO. Super harsh ride and they will wear the middle of the tire real quick. They do this for MPG purposes IMO. I ran around 25 before I lifted my JLUR with the stock setup. It'll ride much better and you'll have even tire wear as well.

27 warm? On road?
This is cold. They warm up to 29 on the road. Off Road, I run 10 psi on the trail and in the sand I will run 6 to 8 psi. depending on the condition of the sand. On Rocks, usually about 10 psi.
