Quick Tire Question

[SneakySnake23]

I bought my Cobra with a set of Bias Ply ET Streets, just mounted them now, what tire pressure should I run on the street around town? They are 11.5 wide 26"tall on 16"wheels. Looking to drive to the track with them on, so whats pressure is good for hwy?

I'd put about 30-32 in them for highway use. Drop to about 10 at the track.

can u post pics of ur tire combo?

30-32? Really? It says on the sidewall thats the max pressure, so I don't know about that. I filled them to 22psi before I put them on the car.

I could post a pic, but its nothing special. Just some cheapo 16" 5 stars with ET Streets on them, and 10th anni's on front lol.

I use to run 27 psi on the streets....

For street use, I'd run them around 25psi

Thanks guys, I've been running around at 22 psi, but I'll bump them up when I go out tonight.

Also it is true what people say about Bias ply and radial tires mixed being an interesting ride, and you do have to be up on the wheel, but I'm sure any experienced driver could handle it fine. Didn't phase me to the point of letting off or anything. Everyone made it seem like it was some insane instability, just a little bit of wiggle lol.
