The same 60 mm Big Apples that I had run on 24 mm Alex rims at 18/22 or so felt harsher at those pressures on the 44 mm SnoCats; so on the latter I ran them generally at about 16/20, mostly pavement. I'm 170 - 175, and had no problems with them, except for dive in corners on pavement if the front was less than 16. Note that this was all with tubes.
FWIW, when I swapped out the Snocats for 30 mm Blunts (at this point, both F Freds, tubeless), I didn't notice any difference in smoothness, but I did notice that the rounder profile on the narrower rims cornered better.
