I am heading off to Deaumont Dunes and was wondering what PSI should I be placing in my rear paddles? Any thoughts? Also...I just purchased the tires and rim set so there is no air in them...What is the best way to get the tire to set properly within the rim so that there is no leaks?

Thanks for your help.

I would assume that the bead has already been seated, just most companies don't ship them with air in the tires, It has been a while since we have been dune riding but If I remember right for drag racing we used 2.5 lbs and for normal riding around 4lbs. you might check in the dune section of this site for more info.

Sorry...you are right. They shipped the tires already in the rim but was wondering if do I over inflate to set the tire because when I inflate to 4 or so PSI the tire does not set all the way against the outer wall of the rim.

Any thoughts...I will check about the conditions in the dune section. Thanks again.
