beadlock question..

[cincy250R]

hey was just wanting too know what kind of tire pressures you guys run in your beadlocks i just got a set for the rear and i put 4 pounds in them and they are popping off the inside beads now.....:( i hate rear tires

they are 8x8 douglas conventionals
with 18in hole shots

I dont have bead locks but on all of my MX rear 18inch tires I have never ran below 8 PSI

I'm using 9x9 hipers, desert racing, and I run 5 pounds rear, 6 pounds front. I have dual beadlock rears though, I take it you don't?

[TRX450RACER174]

On my hipers i run 8psi in the rear and 10 to 12 in the front for mx and less for desert racing.

[cincy250R]

nope only outer beadlocks but thanks for the reply's i'll try 8psi

I also have a question. Do most of your beadlocks leak air after about two days of sitting after a ride or race? My tires get flat about two days later? I have everything tight and it is popped on the bead right. I have douglas ultimate rears 8 inch.

[TRX450RACER174]

Maybe a leaky valve stem or dirt/sand in the bead? I have douglas single beadlocks and hipers none of them leak like that to be flat in 2 days.

[esr250r86]

Yeah, mine are the single beadlocks. I dont have valve stem caps on them so that could make dirt get in there and probably mess with the valve then letting air out slowly.
