Tire pressure

[04ShakinSteed]

I was wondering what tire pressure I should be using. I have 255/35 R18's up from and 295/35 R18's in the rear.

Usually around 80% of max tire pressure. It'll be on the outside of the tire... you'd probably want to be around 35#, just a guess.

Really....that high? I put all 4 at about 30lbs today. I took it out for a spin since she's been in the garage all winter pretty much. the pressure was at 20 from the cold.

I really think I need some caster/camber plates too. With the big tires she really pulls now

For what? Daily driving it?

3-4 psi below max is usually what I have mine at... of course I also haven't checked mine in a while...

alot has to do with tire manufacturer....I alway go 32-35 psi cold....now if I'm going to do a lil corner carver then add a few more psi to keep the tire from rolling over on the rim

But what about when I want to make sure that the tires hook up?? Wouldn't a little lower do me much better or am I missing something?

you talking about tire pressure when your at the track???

No, I know what I would put it at then but I'm trying to find a good "all around" daily driving pressure for it.

35
