I run the 32's with a 3" lift and air down to ~8lbs, which I have found to be the sweet spot. I ask because you seemed to have a lot of tire spin in the video, was it really that wet?

Really you go down to 8psi? I run at 10psi with my 35s and get a ton of flex and bite on my MTRs...

No really... down to 8psi remember I am on 32's

However 8 -10psi shouldn't be that much of a difference. I have noticed that anything over 10psi doesn't help.

Depends on the sidewalls, and size of the tires. My Toyos flex very well at 12 PSI, when I had BFG MTs I had to go to 8 to get the same flex.

Experiment with your tires, you'll find the spot
