Hey everyone, what kind of air pressure do you run in your tires? Will increasing your pressure hurt your tires much?

I adjust pressure depending on the terrain. (More
for rocky hard pack, less for muddy conditions)
Running higher pressure may cause center tread to wear faster.

Well, I am running 35 psi in my tires. They are wearing pretty fast in the middle and ride rough as hell, but boy do they float. I am letting the air out asap though. It's just too rough.

On my mud sharks I'm runing 4lb up front on the rough two tracks and 5lb on snow cover and smooth gravel. 3 to 3.5 in the rear on every thing unless I want ground clearance.
On my titan 495s I run as low as I can get. The lower the pressure the smoother the ride mainly in back.
my 300 cat I run 5lb on all fours it don't care.
....cost on the mud sharks 44 fronts 59 rears...
