The door sticker would say 36psi for that tire size but considering its an LT 115s as opposed to stock 113t rated good year wrangler that has a max of 51psi; I would run like 40psi and not worry about it.

And your tires wear unevenly across the tread.

My 2 cents

I listen to a podcast by an auto shop owner out of Baton Rouge LA, and he suggests 10% lower than the max on the sidewall of the tire. He says you will get a slightly rougher ride but tires will last longer. That’s what I do.
