Default tire pressure

so i put the toyo m/t's 35x12.5x20. what tire pressure do you guys think would be appropriate in these tires. i've been playing with it some but am wanting some other opinions. right now i've got 50 in the front and 45 in the rear. drives alright but the rear still feels a little rough over small bumps. let me know what you think.

Ive got 60 all around in mine, the reason why is that I was getting a funny wear pattern when they were at 35psi.

if you dont like the ride let it down 5psi but keep an eye on the wear.

What I usually do it look at the wear pattern after a week or so. As long as it's making contact across the entire surface and doesn't bleed into the side of the tire, that's where I run them at.

I used to have watch my 36" TSL's almost weekly to get good wear out of them.
