Title: DR Tire Pressure For Tonite?
Post by: Scoobum on September 02 2016, 12:46:09 PM

MAY leave the DR's on it for tonite...curre ntly too lazy to change the slicks/rims over...lol!. Temp tonite is 68 degrees and 64 percent humiditly and sunny skies. Track prep...will be a coin toss. PSI? RPM to leave at? Temp and humidity is better...so I'm just checking on high gear fueling tonite anyway.

MT 28 inch DR's mounted on correct 8 inch rims.

My 255's seemed the same 22 as at 16 not much difference.
What DR are you running Larry? MT's?

Nittos now mostly for the street. Have run MTs I approached them the same way. If it's an all out race weekend I got 9" slicks.
