I noticed a distinct increase in radial stiffness from the archetypes they replaced, any more and I think they would become too harsh

80/85 psi f/r, 25mm (measured) tyres, 72kg. Too much/low?

I'm a lot heavier (100kg and change). My "28C" tyres are a true 26.5mm and I use 5 bar front and 6 bar rear (72/87) for mixed tarmac/gravel. You should certainly experiment with lower pressures if you are finding your current settings anything like harsh.
