70 psi? :eek

I bet the fillings in your teeth are falling out. That is a lot of air. 35psi cold should give you a much more comfortable ride. The upside to the 70psi is that you get a little better gas mileage.

BFG A/T's are a 65 psi max tire, if you run them at 35 then there is a good chance that you will eat the corners of the tread off in no time. I run 52 in the front and 48 in the back and my tires wear evenly.

I run 60 front/70 rear...... but then, I just hauled 3000 pounds of dirt in the bed too..... acceleration suffered, but, braking was hardly even effected.... I was impressed.
