Does anyone know if you can lower tire pressure on a sas wildtrak with 35" LT315/70R17 Mud-Terrain Tires tires for sand? There is a requirement that the tires need to be at 15psi in order to use the sand dunes by me.

Tip, if you're in sand, turn off any traction control.

I have been up there, but not on the dunes. My bronco is scheduled to be built the week of 12/20. Will be hitting it next year for sure.

I've been on the dunes but never driven my own vehicle. I'm very excited to drive and see how the Bronco does and watch the envious Jeep drivers!

Silver lake is the best. Have been there many times, just not with a Bronco. I'm looking forward to taking one there if I ever get my Bronco.

15psi seems pretty low. You might want to find someone who knows better than I do but bead locks may be in order.

I've run 15psi on my Jeep w/o beadlocks. I wouldn't go any lower though, especially on rocks. Sand shouldn't be a problem.
On Order, 11/15/21: MY22 Badlands 2-dr, Carb Gray, 2.3L, 7spd, SAS, Lux Reorder, 9/23/22: MY23, dropped tow.
