Here’s the one dissenting voice. I only weigh in the low 140 pound range. My rims are 30 mm wide inside. I run 2.4 to 2.6 EXO or equivalent casings. On 2.4 I need around 18 to 20 psi. On the wider tires I run 15 to 18 psi. I bottom out a bit when I neglect to check my pressures. I very rarely puncture or tear. I tried the Tannus tubeless inserts. Initial in the damp I liked the really low psi. But once I started going faster when it dried out I found the lower psi allowed the tires to squirm. I needed to run almost the same psi as before so after a couple weeks I decided there was no real benefit to me. I don’t ride bike parks ever so keeping the weight reasonable is important for all the climbing I do.
