Tires - Need some feedback

Thanks, and if I am reading the charts right I should be at ~44-50psi..., right? Where's the 34 coming from? I.e.., all I am doing is drawing straight line over from C to LT line graph. Am I reading this wrong?

The charts are for illustrating the P and LT relationship, but could be used directly by 5th gen owners who go to LT but don't change tire dimensions. You have a 4th gen (marginally relevant) and also changed tire dimension (very relevant).

So, from the linked load/inflation table, using P265/65/17 as stock tire, load capacity at door sticker 32psi is about 2260. Then de-rated because it's P-metric on SUV makes it 2054.

LT285/70/17 load capacity at 35psi is 2105.
