I have yet to take the 4R in anything requiring me to significantly air down, but I wouldn't hesitate to go to 12 or 14 in soft sand..
On my off road rig, 37 inch toyo MT's 14.50x15 I regularly air down to 12 PSI and I don't have bead locks..only once did I have an issue where the side wall got up against some limestone which in turn got ground into the bead and caused a leak.
If you're cruising trails where you want the comfort of some extra traction, I would think anything between 15 and 20 would help a lot on the 4Runner..
Here's Toyo Open Country A/T 285/70R17 on Mickey Thompson "Deegan 38" wheels at 15 psi. First photo is 38 psi.
