I'm trying to get the tire pressures right on the R7s on my 914/6/gt. Running 275x35x15 and 245x40x15. I initially started at 22 shooting for 27 hot but I think they like to be run a bit lower than that.
I'm nowhere near what Hoosier recommends though. Any thoughts? |

I have been running them on a 3 liter six 2280 with driver onboard
I go for 31-32 hot figuring about 6- 8 pick up during a run.. In reality on colder mornings I will start at 26 ---=While I may be high car has great stability. ...but maybe I am slow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I can't see how you can start on a coldish morning and not bleed off pressure as it gets warm/hot. A friend (Cracker) runs his LS 7 914 at 22 cold I believe..... He is very quick. Maybe he will weigh in and correct me although he's so shy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bs.gif) |
