Question about air down.

I explore in the Phoenix area
2016 trail with KDSS
265 KO2 C rated
38 psi street
~28 psi forest roads and smoother dirt roads and depending on outside temperature.

That's what works for me, try things out and see what works.

If you have P rated tires, do yourself a favor and get something else.

You didn't read my posts above, did you? ;): They work just fine at street pressures. However, if I stayed only in AZ, then probably I would be using something else.

Lucky dog! Its wild how lacking the midwest is with true open lands. s

That's true, open in all sorts of ways. In Montana, we explored a lot and it is fun because the dirt roads there are narrow so they feel like easy trails but fast. But the downside is that you are normally just in a forest. SO you may think you are on the Upper Peninsula. I like forests a great deal, but I would not normally want to drive an actual 4x4 trail in a forest, only once in a while for the heck of it. Forest trails where I can be slow but do not have to be slow, that's fun.

By contrast, AZ, UT, CO offer so much both in terms of public land and in terms of open vistas. So do SE California and NV though I find them a lot less appealing, especially NV.

Well....seing as you're not the OP of this thread and I replied to the thread, then no I was not responding to you. Just because I posted after you doesn't mean it was directed at you, I would have replied to you quote if I was.

But I agree with your idea of P vs LT tires. At minimum C or LT is the way to go if doing any kind of offroading.

I almost always drop to 20psi, I run 275/70 KO2's on the Pro wheels. I would go lower but haven't yet felt the need. Without beadlocks I see no reason to go lower than 15psi, YMMV.
