What psi are you guys running your reds

jta · Dec 1, 2015

I run mine at 8psi on the street and 5 or 6 when I'm wheeling it. It's about 2800 lbs

Run em low, let em hook, break crap. Have fun! 25-2600 lbs 8 front, 6 rear. Works good. A few cuts when I beat on it and when I run higher air. Works good at 8 and 10 too.

Reds really don't need single digit unless it's something stupid light. They will stay on a non beadlock wheel pretty well. In a tj I'll do 11/12 front to 12/13 rear.

same pressures here - but 5000lbs of CJ

I run mine at 32 psi on the highway then about 13 psi when I get to the trail then air back up to 32 psi to get home.

Reds are a horrible tire so the sooner I can wear them down to chord and run iroks, the better.

At work

Is this some kind of joke I'm not getting? I would not trade 1 wore out red for a new set of I cant's.

It is, I've been busting his ass because he runs a 42 red on a 20 and loves it.....

I saw jta give a "street" psi and I was appalled. I don't even like hearing mine bark as I turn 90deg in my street to load up.

Sorry though the veins in my face were about to explode while I was squeezing the life out of a scale as I read the post. I got carried away. Apologies

He's just a little sensitive about those twankies and the "42inch reds"

Be careful doing that, because you can fracture a bone in your forearm if you bottom out the scale & keep squeezing...

Mine are on a zuk with a 1.6L. I don't have the power to wear them out on the rocks. They are probably 7 years old and still have plenty of tread on them. A trip to the store or to grab a bite to eat isn't gonna kill them. The fact I'm in FL also means I'm not wheeling two weekends a month so they are gonna dry rot way before I wear them down.

Look man you can't just throw around swimsuit edition rig photos of a Zuk just to try and side step your careless treatment of red labels.

According to muddinmetal, all of the disciples ran 39" reds so they should be able to handle a trip to the store.

Then again I heard it was Haysoose himself who ran a 42" red on a twankie.

Ooooooooooohh

All in good fun gents

Cooter Brown's is the place to eat in Jacksonville

One of minesez leaks, so I sometimes run it at 0psi.
erybody was telling me 8psi, so I was running them at 10psi and telling them. "YASSSS... they're at 8... YASSSSS"

You meant one on each side, right?

lowbudgetjunk · Dec 20, 2015

I'm on my second ride on Red labels. They are way stickier than I could have imagined. Axle wrap is killing the rear right now and I have to fix that. I dropped down a couple more PSI than the first test session and they still seem to be a little stiff. I am used to tires that have some wrinkle to them, but all of those were also bias ply tires. Is going down to 4 and 3 really pushing it? The buggy is super light and the winch on front could probably suspend it from a nice high tree branch. The sidewalls absolutely do not bulge or wrinkle at the current PSI. I don't want to cut sidewalls and just looking for a bunch of people to disagree and hopefully someone that just runs boggers on rockwells to chime in :stir:
