Nice pics. Where about is your ranch? From the look of things, it's not far from my part of the world!

I always ran my 35 14.5 Mickey T's at 21 psi and my BFG 35 12.5's at 24. I put lots of miles on the highway and that always provided nice even wear.

Some other examples of how widely it can vary is my MB runs the tube-type bias tires at 14. At 30, they pounded you to death, but at 14 ride is pretty reasonable. And in my Duramax, I run them at 75, (Load Range E, max load at 80 psi) trying to get the least rolling resistance for mileage, but not totally wearing the centers.
