Does anyone know where I can find an Pressure/Load chart for BF Goodrich Rugged Trail T/A LT245/75R17/E tires? All the charts I can find show only Max Pressur & Max Load numbers. According to those charts the tires are rated for 2910# @ 80 psi with DRW. In fact, I doubt that I'll ever see 2000#/tire on the rear wheels. (Front end is another story.)

It's a real bumpy ride @ 80 psi and no trailer!

I know michelins site has a load chart , I would just use that for your BFG tires. As long as the max load on the tires are the same the pressure at XX psi should be the same for every tire. I would not run the tire under 50 PSI ever.
