35psi is an abusive ride on an E-rated tire, 32psi is mucho better.
E load on a 4Runner is kinda harsh period. My Nittos are D and at anything over 35psi they start to get harsh.

The E-rated tires were snuck on by the guys at Discount Tire, I didn't notice that they were E-rated until a buddie pointed it out much later.

I figured the new harshness in the ride was due to the lift I put on at the same time. After airing down to 32psi, the ride is now pretty good.

I've learned lesson; not only do you need to specify the brand and size, you also need to include the load rating.

My new rims are rated for 2,150, its a good thing my tires will handle 3,195. When my rims crumble at least my tires will still be good. =)

Yep,when you look up TGs on the Discount site it automatically brings up the E load rated version and you actually have to look at the subset of Nittos to find the D load rated which there was also a considerable price diff too.

I was running my BFG M/T completly flat until a few weeks ago when Obama told me to air them up. I now run them at ~32psi, and I am getting much better gas mileage now!

Thanks Mr. Obama!

i run 4 on the trail and like 15 on the street, but i run 39.5x15 TSL bias so they are pretty stiff and it only sees the street once in a blue moon.

My tires call for a max of 50psi, so I usually run them at 45-47. I don't check them too often, but they seem to hold pretty well. Usually only have to add air every 4-5 months (that's how often I check the tires, WOW! That sounded bad...)

Why are you guys running less air in the front? Thats where all the weight is...

Unless your door jam stickers don't match your tires!
