Recommended tire pressure is 80 psi rear and tire wear is really center biased. I lowered it to 70 and the TPMS went off. I raised it back to 75 and the TPMS let me get away with it, wear was still to much to the center. I decided to just tolerate the low tire light and lowered them to 70. This time the TPMS allowed it.
Now I wonder if I can ease it back a couple of pound per week and trick it down to 65.
The tire wear was so bad the new tire nubs were still there and the outside 3/4 to an inch of tire was not discolored after over 1000 miles.
What size tire and what is the weight rating, you likely have about 3,000# on the rear axle unloaded. I run between 45 and 50 psi empty. My tires are 265/75-16E @3,415# each.
I have gone two winters in the PNW with this and never needed to add weight to the bed to keep from spinning the tires Michelin MS/2+, balanced wear.
