Re: What is the perfect pressure

there is no perfect pressure, every tire is different, even two of the same model tire, just worn different amounts will need different pressures. The more worn it is the more pressure it needs cause the carcas is thinner, making it flex easier

here's a rough idea of where i keep mine
rear - 20-30 psi
front - 20-25 psi
