Air down tires over rough roads?

Thanks for the info everyone! My original goal was to go faster along rough roads with the deflated tires (TV and TAB). After reading your posts, it dawned on me to factor the time needed to deflate 6 tires and then reinflate them. 

I always air down my TV from 33psi to about 20psi and I've had good luck on the 4x4 trails. On the T@B, I'll try going from 47psi to about 25psi and see how that works. The screw on valve deflate caps that you preset are a great assist to save time too!

What are “the screw on deflate caps” you reference? I recently installed 6 tire pressure sensors on my TV and T@B that send a wireless signal to a solar powered monitor on my dash. Works great, but does not allow for easy adjustments to tire pressure.

You screw them onto the valve stem. They will deflate to a previously set PSI. We off road era use them to quickly deflate 4 tires simultaneously. Mine are currently set to 20 lbs for my JKU RUBI w/37s

Thanks guys!  Didn't know such a thing existed. Will order some today.
