Low Tire Pressure warning 2011 F 350

Have aftermarket tires that call for 65 psi, but Ford specs dictate 80 psi in rear tires. Not comfortable running 80 psi in tires rated 65 psi, any known work around or perhaps programmer that would allow these specs to be adjusted?

I'm pretty sure a dealer can adjust the sensors for you

I lifted my 2012 f250 and put 37's BFG's on it a 50 PSI tire... the dealer was able to set the sensors to 50psi.... not all dealers will do this (Liability?) before he reset it I went on ebay and bought a sheet of black window cling material and cut out a circle with an xacto knife and stuck it on the dash to block the light worked great but was happy dealer was able to reset the sensors to the lower pressure... might not be able to be done with the 2011 though.*( I have heard)

This reminds me of a story my agent told me several months back about a truck running lower than recommended tire pressure and being involved in an accident. During the investigation they found the tire pressure was not at the pressure of what the manufacture recommended on the sticker and coverage was denied.

Another warning he gave me was on an article on a guy driving to the gas station to fill up his truck with gas and had his plow on. He was involved in an accident and he was denied coverage because it was not snowing, had not snowed and he had not need for the plow to be on. The insurance company said it takes less than 1 minute to mount/remove a plow. Needless to say he was denied coverage.
I fine read my policy and found some pretty interesting stuff. One for sure is to not take something for granted assuming we are covered 24/7
