KO3's!!!

Thanks folks. I got chewed on a year ago, but seem to stand correct at this point and prime reason Toyota doesn't want E loads.......Stick to an XL tire is my advice if you want a bit more.
 
Running E loads at high pressure is straight torture, I have been running E loads for 15 plus years on different vehicles which are not three quarter ton trucks, usually Tacomas, 4runners, Jeeps and now LC. I run them at 33psi cold pressure and its the sweet spot. I do the chalk test across the thread to see the wear pattern and 33psi is where it is at for me.
Iโ€™ve traveled at highway speeds and offroad for hundreds of miles without an issue.

That's potentially damaging your tires etc. but i hear you loud and clear, you dont like driving with a mouth guard in.
I run our E rated KO2s 315/70 R17 at 35psi on our jeep (same reason as you), but jeep weighs 1000 pounds less than LC. I raise them to 38 when i tow (1500lbs). Check the chart if you havent already, just for peace of mind.

For sure if I was towing or carrying substantial weight I would run them higher, but my tires have always lasted me due to 5k rotations. Very impressed with the new KO3โ€™s and Falken Wild Peaks.
