I bought my GY Duratrac 265/75/16 a half year ago. Going to do a rotation soon. Discount Tire filled them to 37 PSI when I first got them. Been going with that ever since. I would like these tires to last as long as possible while being nice to drive one. Here is what I run mine at but looking for more knowledge...

Again 265/75/16 C rating
-HWY and City - 37 PSI cold fill
-Offroad and Rocks - 20 PSI
-Sand - ???
-Snow - ???

Also like I said tire rotation is coming up and I have a fifth w/ matching rim. Assuming Discount will rotate in the spare to the passenger rear. Is that the best place or should I ask them to put it elsewhere?

Thanks,

Mason

i run 35 on road.

i run them 12-18psi when i am off road. Never had an issue with a bead popping.

This was about 14psi


Oh and with relatively good balance and rotation schedules, i have 55k miles on mine. should get close to 70k miles on this set.
 
I'm running the same.
This is my first set of DTs. They definitely have a harsher ride than my Yoko AT/S (they were my last set). They are getting softer. This is after a hundred miles or so at 18psi. We air down at the beginning of a Moab trip, at our first trail, and air back up before hitting the highway home.
They do awesome on deep snowbashing trails.

sorry to dig this back up

Same tires here. I wanted load C and duratracs so worked perfect. Wanted lightest rotational mass along with softest ride. Mounted on SCS wheels 16x8 I have not got the best wear yet. I have the outside edges of rear tires still not even touching the road. I like a soft ride and I am now down to 26 psi in the rear and still the edge of tires is not touching. Tires are still brand new under 1,000 miles on them so I want to get this as right as possible to keep wear perfect. Fronts are at 28-30 right now but show a little better than rear for edges. I keep seeing every post even with E load range running more pressure than me. My runner is completely empty as stock could be. Occasional bicycles and couple people but no real weight.

I am going to give a higher pressure a try as you have posted and see how it drives. I had Nitto terra grapplers before this and they wore just fine being exact same size but load D.

As of now:
265/75-16 Duratrac C load
Daily Driving F: 28 psi R: 26 psi
Offroad: F: 18 R: 15 ballpark in the rocks
