Chris Eccles Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 It`s probably been asked a thousand times , but I have just fitted 48`s and I am wondering what the best tyre pressure would be for enthusiastic road use 🤔 thanks in advance Ho Hum The French Blatting Company Limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normans_Ghost Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Chris, if you thought they were good at 27 wait till you try them at 18.

old captain slow Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 They will melt down the middle at 27! C7 CDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budjuggler Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Mine are at 18 - but I might reduce the fronts to 16/17 when I have tried them out C7 GON - There is a very fine line between 'hobby' and 'mental illness' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old captain slow Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 I'm running mine 16 front 18 rear on the road. Seems ok although it's clear from the tread marking that the full width is not in contact at the front. C7 CDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Ford Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 Advice from the Yoko man was 22-23 hot for track use, which usually translates to 17-18 cold. I would have thought 18 cold was a bit low for road use, assuming you don't get as much heat into them as you do on the track. But then I know nothing about hard road driving so maybe I'm talking ballcocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Eccles Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 Thanks for all the info, I have a nail in one of the rears so I think I will sort the pressure while the repair is being done *smile* Ho Hum The French Blatting Company Limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
