the transfer box is irrelevent to tyre sizes and pressure...as far as i know theres nothing on them to tell you what ratio they are.... bob only mentioned it cos hes a total ****.
yer metal wheels are 16 inch diameter but they can have various width and thickness tyres on them ... 205/80/16 is a common size 205 is the tread with in mm , 80 is the ratio between the tread width and sidewall height , 16 is the rim wheel rim diameter in inches, 235/70/16 is another common size.
750/16 is and older system of marking 750 is 7.5 inches tread width.
for off roading a lower tyre pressure makes the sidewall more flexible giving a slightly bigger more flexible contact patch (footprint) to grip the ground better. at high speed on road the low pressure will give more sidewall flex which generates heat and could lead to a blowout. too low a pressure and the tyre will come off the rim on cornering. 30 psi is a good comprimise to be safe on road and off but put them back up the day after. you might find one of the others on a trip will have a compressor and be adjusting pressures when they leave or reach tarmac.
35/45 is road pressures ...higher in the back to carry more weight. lower in front for better grip.

Think suew's will be 205/70or75/16 rember seeing them next to my 265/75/16 and they looked loads smaller, 238/85/16 is about the same hight as a 265/75/16
Tyre them tomorrow if you feel like its rolling on the tyres then pop abit more in, if your going laning with the Yorkshire lot someone will have a pump,
You know where you heading and who's leading?

Wouldn't class anything I do as proper "offroad", but you could always start with that,
letting it out is easier than putting it in

Thats true, I actually have a compressor that works off the cig lighter somewhere, for putting air in. Not sure where it is though
Cant find the kettle either, must have put them all in a box when we moved house. On the bright side I have found the 12v hairdryer and shower, not sure what possible use they could have off roading though Been having minor stress about tomorrow all day, hoping I dont make a complete fool of myself. My offroading experience is limited to towing trailer out of boggy fields

Have fun fella, at a guess, as long as you don't claim to know everything, peeps Will help you out.
Might want to keep quiet about the hair drier though

Thanks just having a coffee and I'm off
The hairdryer was a joke (although I do have one) might get away with it due to not being a "fella"
