tyre pressure

[landy]

not sure if this is the right section.

wot psi should i be running for 1/4miles. ill be running dunlop slicks 205/50/15

qualitatively I'd say go low on the front for some high friction bite and high on the rear to reduce rolling resistance.

I would say with the slicks you can use the normal pressure as they are designed to grip at that pressure. Agree with Ad on the rears, the higher it is the less friction because you have less contact with the road/track

[landy]

so low psi front and high psi rear

[craig180]

so low psi front and high psi rear

Def high rear but I would use the recommended psi on slicks unless you want to chew your way through your driveshafts on the first run?!

[landy]

ill look.

wanna sell me your cams this weekend

[craig180]

ill look.

wanna sell me your cams this weekend

Was actually thinking about selling them and the ecu but I gave c8james first refusal! How much you offering?

[landy]

how much you lookin for and wot are they talk to me on msn

[williamsvts]

im sure some run about 20psi on the front with avonj acb10's

[Barry123]

yeah as i say i anit got a clue about actual PSI ratings for the tyres....

but atleast its a start...bu could probably get away with 20psi on the front..

ps william... nice avatar... give me a shout if you want to the original photo :) .

[williamsvts]

the sidewalls are a lot harder on slicks aswell thats how you can get away with the lower pressure. they also operate best at higher temps so the air in teh tyres will expand more than road tyres.

i was also wondering this landy good thread
