It's been awhile since I've used slicks. This battle of the clubs I'll be on 26x10's. On my bfg's I went down to 12psi. Where should I start? With my BFG's my launch rpm was around 5300. With these slicks it'll be between 6000-7100rpm. Thanks. -Mark

 

what kind of slicks are you using??? I would say start at 10psi cold and do a nice big burnout to warm them up, then after that run check pressure because Im sure it will raise.... Keep them around 12psi warm, and then see how she does.... You can always take more pressure out, you just dont wanna take too much out from the start, and bog and mess up a driveshaft or something... Just drop it a little if it doesnt hook right, and then once you get it where you want it, stay there....

As a side note, if you take out too much pressure, dont put more air in..... Just launch higher

 

Their MT 26x10. I think the compound is m5. Trust me the driveshaft or rear won't break. I made sure it could with stand hard launches when I built it. Now the tranny on the other hand is another story. -Mark

 

Don't listen to the FWD guys, they run them flat Remember you will sway more up top the lower the pressure is. I run the Buick at 12-14 and it sways a little, but it weighs more than your car too. I don't see any reason to go down as low as 10 however

 

my 2800 lb car with 26 inch slicks loved 15psi.

1.6 60's consistent enough to break the differential.

 

i have 29.5X10.5 mt on my car and it does best at about 10.5 psi

 

start with 12-13 and adjust from there.. I run at about 11-11.5 on my 28x10.5

 

You should have felt my car at sunshine on like 9-10 psi .. the backend probably had 6-8inches of lateral movement.
