Have you guys measured the distance between the jack points, front to back? I'm evaluating lift choices and that info would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your work on CT, you give lots of great information in your CT "dissection" videos.
70.5" between jack points

Shown inflated to 50psi, you're close!
Is 50 PSI enough to prevent rim damage from small potholes? How much load can those tires handle at 50 psi? I'm just trying to make sense of this tire on a Cybertruck. And I still don't know how many PSI I would need to fill them to in order to maintain the Cybertrucks published 2500 payload capacity. Would 50 psi reduce the rated payload capacity? How much air do they need?

It seems like with a low profile tire you might be reluctant to increase the pressure above 50 PSI to keep the ride from getting too harsh and maintain some sidewall compliance but wouldn't that be risking rim damage, especially if the truck had a load in it?

Tread chunking you mention sounds more like from aggressive offroad / tire spin on sharp rocks. That's a different animal - sure, that happens, all tires. But I dont see treads chunking on pavement, more of a 'wear / grind down' scenario. But I will watch!
Yep, chunking is most common off-road, but these are All-Terrain tires we are talking about!

50psi is good, no issues at all. On the rare chance someone loads a literal 'ton' to the bed, they can increase tire pressure for that drive, easy.

Yes, that was my question:

How much pressure do those tires need to be rated for the full payload capacity of the Cybertruck?

Is it 80 psi, or is there a lower inflation pressure that will not cause the rated Capacity of the Cybertruck to exceed the rated capacity of the tire? If so, what pressure is that?

for just street driving I would do the 22", I think that with little wider off roadish looking tire would be the best look
