The local garage topped up my neighbour's Jimny tyres to something around 32psi when it went in for a service.
As a result of that she almost took an unintentional excursion into the scenery.
What rattled her the most is that they did it not just the once but twice - even though she'd rebuked them for it the first time!
I think they've learned now
IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

In the context of the time they were pretty good on sealed surfaces but not great in slippery conditions.
I can vouch for the notice on the tyre wall being correct. I tried popping an imperial diameter on a metric rim and the result was no chance of it fitting with a view of using it afterwards.
The reason for trying was the price of a metric tyre was about 5 or 10 times the price of an imperial tyre. Probably for the purist only and the performance has been overtaken by current technology and range of choice.

I've got 225/70 16 Toyo open country tyres. Would you guys recommend even lower than 24?

The last two times I bought wheels (overseas) I had them sent by sea freight, as un-accompanied baggage from the UK to Australia. I still have not found a suitable way to replicate this method under Covid19 Conditions with a set of Steels from a Gen 4-SZ4.
Just you keep up the good work Lambert, we love you!!
