I have the sand star tires front and back and I ride a lot in Pismo. I was wondering what the best tire pressure is for the dunes? for both front and rear tires. I drag race also in the sand, what tire pressure is best for that also?
also I have the holeshot tires with burgard wheels for the rear and stock front for now. I was wondering what the most common tire pressure you guys run both front and back and what works best for the trails!!

Thanks:D

how long do you have to have the 30psi in the tires when seating the bead? because i just got my tires and wheels put on. but when running other wise between 3-4.5 psi good?

i run 2-5 dependign on conditions in my holeshots for the rear, and 5-7 up front. for sand ii always ran what i did in the trails, lower pressure gives you better floatation in the sand so i ran about 4.

Also i just check it with my knee to see if its low or not. (I know its not the best way to check it but its easy enough for me.)
