Your firstone tires carry a max load of 4540 lbs each @ 110 psi max cold.. Thats 9080 lbs capacity on the rear..
Whats your rear axle ratings on the drivers side door tag say?
Max inflation will certainly keep the tires cooler from what I know..
Get the truck axles weighed at a cat scale fully loaded, and empty..That will tell you what pressures you can technically run with TC..
IMO with the camper I would run max psi in all tires.. Check the wear and possibly adjust the fronts if they start wearing in middle to a lower psi.....
I run max cold pressures when I tow period. When not towing I lower to a lower pressure for a more comfortable ride..
Break in??? Its just to burn off the oils on the tire for traction. Run the truck unloaded for a couple hundred miles should be fine with no aggresive turns , stops, or acceleration...
