Last season I ingnored the annoying little light and ran 65 / 50 PSI with no bad handling habits or tire wear and a considerably nicer ride.
Now that I need new rubber I am thinking I might as well switch to load range 'D' tires.
Any thoughts from anybody who has actually done this?

If you were running around at 80/65 w/o towing then right there is your problem. Those pressures are WAY TOO HIGH for the non towing configuration and your 65/50 is much closer to what is needed for non towing. Unfortunately your TPMS is non adjustable and is based on the max load as per the FMVSS door jam label.
