#4414, "MH slicks - a good tire pressure?"




          

I'm getting a pair of 8.5x24.5x13 MH radials and a pair of 13x8 8.5lb Bogart wheels, what's a good tire pressure to try first with these tires? I'm guessing around 20-25 PSI?

I have the Level 2 axles from The Driveshaft Shop. They should hold it...

About $850 from Extreme. For some retarded reason, Extreme claims that Bogart requires all orders to include <|these> dimensions and Extreme didn't have the stock 2G GS/RS/GST information on file, so I had to go and measure it myself. Oh well. I thought about getting skinnies for the rear, but I decided to save the cash until I'm convinced that I really need them.

EDIT: Ugh. DCForum doesn't like it when you try to make a HREF to a GIF.

I use M&H Racemaster drag radials on the Z and usually I'll run about 17 psi. It's squirly at the trap but I got a 1.79 60' like that.
