I concur with the rim sticking out the extra bit on both sides you need to watch gutters on drive ways.
it will scratch if you dont take it straight on.
I even noticed some new reflectors are to high for my side walls practice to avoid hitting them. you get pretty good at it after a while
Chris pointed this out to me before aswell

HA HA I did mention that quite a while ago, & I have to agree about the drive ways, especially service stations because they usually have wide drive ways & are always tempting to take them on an angle

The max tyre pressure should be on the sidewall of the tyre. Its pretty hard to find sometimes, so look hard.
The max pressure for our 225/35/20 is 44psi, so I run them at 42 psi.
I think you could safely run 40 - 42 psi without a problem.
Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Rusty.

If there shuddering it would more likely be an out of balance problem.
It shouldn't cost too much to have all four wheels re-balanced and I'd say this should fix your problem.
