BF Goodrich AT TA KO2 - what pressure?

Just wondering what pressures I should put in the 265/75 16" BFGoodrich AT KO2 tyres on my LR 90 SW?

Landrover manual says 2.1 / 2.6 bar front / rear, however I noted the tyres maximum load is quoted as being when inflated to 4.4 Bar (65 psi!!!!) which seems a bit high to me!

Just wondering what would be reasonable figures to get max comfort whilst also being fine for spirited on road driving?

Also is there a minimum inflation pressure for this tyre?

Thanks,

Philip.

If you not carrying load I'd say 32F 36R psi.

I'm currently running 32F 34R but only due to rear shocks. It's a bit low to the rear.
38in the rear is quite hard unless your carrying a load or towing.

On my 110 I usually run 36psi front and 46psi rear, increasing the rears to 60-65psi if at max GVW. So yes, 4.4 bar is correct for max load on the tyre!

You'll want to run a 90 at lower pressures, of course.
