Curious what everyone is running on their MT ET Streets and ET Fronts for the track?

I've heard everything from 10 to 16 psi in the rears and 35 to 40 psi in the fronts.

Discuss. Thanks.:hi:


my tire sizes:
Mickey Thompson ET Front Tires 26.0'' x 4.5'' - 15''

Mickey Thompson ET Street Tires 27'' x 10.5'' - 15''

ET Street Bias? Radial?

It's going to be different for every car and track. I started at 13 and through trail-n-error settled on 11.6.

15 sounds like a good starting point...keep in the back of your mind that on the top end with less air pressure that rear will probably sway more than your used too...so you don't want to take too much out. I had a friend put 10 pounds in the first time I ever ran on slicks in my old coupe and boy was it a scary ride.

I ran the (radial) MT's right around 18 and had decent bite with just alittle bit of spin. (pre whipple)
