I reduced back to 110psi, cold now about 95psi and the odd tread ware stopped. My 3721RL is 13250lbs empty, and I had maybe 1000lbs in cargo (Very Conservative) for a total of 14250lbs of the 16930 it is rated for......Just what I have noticed is the tire pressure will need to be adjusted by the total weight you are placing on them.....This was just my observation, and by no means the gospel......

I have been running mine at 95-100. total weight partially loaded was 12,720 on the scales, dry is supposedly 11800, GVWR is 15,500. Probably fully loaded haven't had it on the scales ,but around 13200-13400.
Anyway at that psi, and weight no abnormal wear on my Sailuns. Guessing haven't really kept track of the miles want to say around 4k.
The Sailun S637 ST 235/85/16 is rated at 4400 @ 110 psi, I am running say the 13400 minus the pin weight , 20-25% I got around 3K pin weight. So 10,400 on the tires , or around 2600 on each. If I looked at a weight chart , I could probably run less then the 95-100, but so far everything seems to be working okay.
