    running 555's on my 17's at 33psi. 32 is recommended, but I run 33 and 35 when i want more response.

      I found that 32psi was best with my 275/40-17 GS-C's. Anything less and the "tracking" in the truck tire grooves got worse. I got 40K miles out of the tires, and actually sold them at that point because they still had 1/3 of the tread left.
