For everyday use try 50psi, if that's too rough go down to 42-44 psi. 65 psi for daily use will give you a rough ride. Forgot to say that setup look's great!

Thanks for the complements and info.
They put 50 in when I bought them and went back yesterday to get the splined lugnuts and the guy said to run at least 65 for wear, At 50 the rife was better than stock, so I guess I will go back down to 50

When I got my new Firestone Destination MTs, the tire shop inflated them to 65 PSI. Man, what a rough ride. You could feel every little bump. I aired them down to about 40 and its perfect for me!

45psi would be best for tread wear, and solid grip.
