How rough is your ride with E Rated tires?
i had e rated nitto terra grappers and couldnt stand the ride at the 40 psi min. that they recomended. (i called nitto about the min air pressure)
i took them back to NTB under their guarantee and exchanged them for the P rated extra load. the max air is 34 psi and will handle the normal loads i run and the ocassional heavy ones.
but the shocks seem to need to be replaced. small bumps the truck vibrates but the bigger bumps the truck handles fine. i am just under 38k miles.

Tires
Those are Cooper Winter treads on my F150 Heavy Half. We're talking 8200 GVW vehicle these are used on during the winter months. I figure if Cooper uses that setting then it must be ok.
Again, what is the max pressure listed on the side wall. If you are over that, it is overinflated. Also, I would never use a p series tire on an 8200lb GVWR F150. The come standard with LR E tires. for a reason
One of the worst things you can do to a tire is run too low a pressure. It damages the tire itself at highway speeds due to heat buildup. That eventually will cause a blowout or tread separation.
