I used to run 23 psi in mine, but the centers still wore out prematurely. After speaking with Nitto they advised me not to run less than 15 psi. That is what I run, and they have much more even tread wear as well as traction.

I know that in my street tires I had to run 18 psi in the rears and about 26-28 in the front to keep them wearing even.
