BFG Comp Sport 2 255/50/16 PSI

What PSI are you using on BFG Comp Sport 2 255/50/16’s?

I know…look for the sticker on the door jamb. But these aren’t stock size.

I’m currently filling to 34 and pretty happy with it, but I’m wondering if going up or down a pound or two would get some improvements.

I'm keeping mine at 30 PSI. 255 rear. 245 front.
Any more than that and the centre of the tread looks to wear excessively.

I ran 28 front 26 rear and the wear was pretty even. It was 255 BF's all the way around. They are a great tire.

I've always ran a couple psi lower In the rear. In my head, less weight back there needs less air. Right or wrong I do it.
