I have AMP M/T LT285/65R18 tires on my rig. Criticize if you want, but that is what is on it (bought it that way recently).
Before I owned it, it sat for a while so it has some flat spots. And no weights. At 30MPH you could feel the flat spots bucking. At 50MPH you started losing fillings.
I was running them at 50PSI (out of 80PSI max). Dont know where I saw that as a suggestion, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Today I went to the tire shop to have them balanced, knowing that I still need to ride out the flat spots. When I drove off, the truck was all over the place, wandering like a stray cat. I went back and asked them what pressure they pumped the wheels. They said 32PSI. I drove off with the thought that I might go home and do a chalk test and see where it puts me.
However, esteemed mudders, what do you run on the road? Also, any suggestions on the flat spots?
