Hey guys, I was just wondering what tire pressure I should run on my 20's for the street.....

KMC Nova's

Front: 20x8's with 245/35/20's Nitto 555's

Rear: 20x10's with 285/30/20's Nitto 555's

Wasn't sure what tire pressure is recommended as far as being close to my stock 18's.....

Thanks,
Chris

I've been running mine between 35 and 40 psi, then 22psi at the track, but this is the toyo's also and have a 50psi max. I run my psi alittle high hoping it protects the wheel alittle more if I hit a pot hole here in michigan....our roads suck!

When I got the wheels, the tires were on 42-45......So I let them down to 35, now if I am over 100mph it seems like the car wants to "walk" side to side a little.....Wasn't sure if that was just the 20's feel, or if the tires were too low....

I run 40 psi on my 20" on the street and 25psi in the rears at the track. I like them to have 40 on the street when hot and so I've found 38psi to be the right number cold. The 20" need a little higher pressure it seems so they dont feel SQUARE..
