You're pressures do seem really high.

Rear bar bumps you out of stock class into Street Prepared.

I'm running 285 on a 9" rim in front and is definitely pinched. I'm afraid if I run lower pressure the roll over will kill the tire, especially if i go back to a stock front bar. The tire wear is currently acceptable considering how I drove it like a tank. Haha.

Rules are 140 tire rating and above, any size you can squeeze on a stock size rim with 1/4" allowance in offset. Change front or rear bar not both. Two external adjustment on shocks but can't change springs.
