I agree with that. First of all my Triton have the max air pressure posted on the tire sidewall. For my 16.9x28s it's 18 PSI and they are only 6 ply. I run 15-18 in them.
My fronts are 20x18 or something like that and are 10 ply luggers with a rating of 45. Even though I have a FEL I only run 18 in them because of the short wheel base and all it makes for a softer ride. Yes they pooch when I have a load and if I am going to do any loader work to speak of I'll run them up to 30 then back when finished.
On my Fords I run 30 in the fronts 600-16 4 ply primarily as an aid to manual steering and 18 in the rear 13.whatever x 24 4 ply for softness of the ride. Seldom do I have much weight on them and when I do the tires squat.
But I agree on the flat tread test mentioned too. Just have to make a decision on what you are going to do when you change loads.
