low tire psi thing of the past??....or not??

Iv been ridin for about 6 years and seen a lot of things come and go. When 12's were first and glamor everyone ran like 5 pis in there tires. Now i run about 20 cause it kept wanting to wrinkle. So whats everyone running now?

And 40psi in a michlin pilot = best drift tire EVER!!
