What is good tire pressure

What is the best tire pressure for a fiddy? My tire is soft and i can do stand up circles but some times it feels like i'am on the rim. Someone told me to make my tire harder it will make my circles easyer. So let me know what the best tire pressure is.

I run between 20-25psi, I used to use less but lost a couple tubes and I hate changing them.

I run my tire pretty firm, not sure about the pressure though, I just go off of feel. I know softer is easier for straight stuff but firmer for circles so I just keep it firm and deal with it. Been told by guys who rode my bike that i should let air out but I like it.

Re: What is good tire pressure

The more air u have in it, the more of a natural tide surface u have to ride on. Therfore it makes it 100x's easier to make a circle. If u run it real low, it makes the contact surface very flat. Which means it doesnt veer side/side. Which also means, its not gonna circle for ****, LoL

Granted once u get use to everything, u can make that bitch do what u want even without a tire on the rim (NO dont ask, LoL)....=-)
