Computer says 2psi less than where I'm at. With the old wheels I was happy where I was, the new are still in the experimental stage, I'll more than likely end up heading in that direction with them. |

Interesting, is that because of the slop and the roots? |

No matter what setting I use on that link I get tyres that are higher psi than mine.. Winter slop setup is not as far off as the rest of the year though, but still off..

Interestingly i just re-did mine on there and it comes up lower on my rear than i use now, but i think thats mainly because of my side walls were flexing to much under stress in the berms, so i upped my pressure. Like i said before though, its a guide and a good starting point. |
