i just changed tires and wheels on my 400ex. i race mx and was running 9lbs of pressure in the front and 7lbs in the rear with stock tires and rims. i have now switched to itp t-9 rims in the front with itp holshot mx tires 20x6x10 and douglas beadlock on the rear with mxr4 18x10x9. mx riders give some feedback on what you guys run.

7lbs?!??! I'd run 1 with in the rear with beadlocks and like 8lbs up front.

Depends on what terrain the track is, for really soft sand tracks, I'll run 3 in the rear and 5 up front, if its medium, I'll run 5 in the rear, and 6 up front, and if the track is really hard and slick I'll run 6 in the rear and 8 up front.
