Merry fucking Xmas to you assholes
Only if you cut my legs off.
I generally run 28-30 psi in the front and 32-35 psi in the rear depending on tyre.

Depends where I ride.
High Roller 2.4in EXO tubeless. I'm about 75kg.
Lysterfield - longer distance XC - 30psi front and rear.
Up in the hills, 25psi front, 28-30psi rear.
Any lower in the rear I start dinging rims and burping tyres.
70-80psi in my 23c roady tyres.

So I'm riding a bike with tubes for the first time in 4 years this weekend. Pretty narrow trail style rims running an Ardent 2.25 front and Crossmark 2.1 rear. I used to run ~40lbs in those suckers.
I put them up to 31 front and rear and they feel hard as hell! I don't want to make them harder, a couple of turns on the dirt out the back reveals that pressure is sketchy compared to my toobless. I hope I don't pinch flat, will carry a pump, tube and kit (usually don't) this weekend in case.
@pink poodle I've seen some posts that suggest you still run tubes, what pressures would you run on these sorts of tyres? I am 95kg and on a good rock garden I would pinch flat 40+ psi often pre-tubeless.
I'm running 22 front and 24 rear on the 2.4f 2.3r Maxxis High Roller 2 on the new bike. It's bloody fantastic, over nearly 4 years of tubeless I've gone from 26 front and 32 rear when I first got them

Go the cheese cutters! I'm running 25-32psi on trail, if it's really rocky I might get up to 35psi. But I'd be rolling a minion, high roller, or very similar tyre in a 2.3-2.5. I am a similar weight to yourself and rarely have issue with flats. I did get one recently after a pretty savage case! So it's either technique or I don't ride very rocky rock gardens. So obviously I'm really hardcore and smooth and you're a noob getting pinch flats on a pebblecrete drive way?

I stupidly sold my 26" Minions years ago thinking they were too heavy and now only have 26" cheese cutters. I'll pull a bit out of the front, and run with 32ish rear, and put my best smooth face on.

You can usually run less on the front but I took my full rigid out last week for a 50km ride, ran about 34 in the rear and 30 in the front, my dry weight is about 83kg. On the way home trying to beat the rain back I nailed a few rock drains that the council had made out of blue stone rocks the size of bowling balls and heard the rear rim ping, thought it would have flatted for sure but I didn't, it might have helped that I ran a thicker dh tube on the rear but it made a hell of a ping noise.

I have tubes and as big plus, I never leak any sealant. I haven't had a flat for a very long time <touch wood>. I suspect the bigger tubeless tyres plus a tube give great protection for JRA rides.
I run 28-30psi on the front 2.3 Han Dampf or DHR and 32psi on the rear 2.25 Ardent. I'm about 83kgs like @Flow-Rider so we could probably swap clothes if we had to.

Thread digging, but I'm the same weight and wondering if you're running those pressure with or without cushcores?
I've got DHF2.5/DHR2.4 29's at 27f/30r and they feel rock hard to me. My brain doesn't want to adjust to 29ers and the thought of going lower on rocky trails is freaking me out.
