tire pressure
I bought new tires for the truck switched from the P rated that was on the truck when I bought it to LT tires. New tires are rated for 80lbs pressure. Question: Do I run the tires at 80lbs all the ...

Read the maximum load wrong and used 1700 kg so gave to low answers.
So correction Front 48 psi / 3.4 bar and rear 57 psi/3.9 bar
sorry for the mistake but rest of my answer still stands.
Then about the list you got from Michelin.
Calculated it back to be using the power in the universal formula of 0.7 wich gives to much deflection in the lower load /pressure range.
If you whould have asked Michelin Europe they would have given you a list made with power 0.8 wich is save enaugh for P-tires and XL but even also gives for LT tires in the lower load/pressure range more deflection.
Made you a list with yet another spreadsheet with my calculation so to my opinion the right loadcapacity's for the pressure .
Made it per tire and only PSI but one in KG and one in LBS.
