Default Tire Pressure?

Could anyone tell me what tire pressure they have been running on the same setup I have? Thanks

It's really more of a matter of personal preference...you could probably run anywhere from 25-40 psi depending on how you like your ride.

I would like to have the tread wear even across the tire.

There's a nice write-up on here somewhere that tells how to figure out what the tire pressure should be.

It involves chalking a line on each tire then driving in a parking lot a little bit the reducing the pressure / repeat until line goes away evenly across tread.

Anywhere between 25 and 30 should be good. I don't have the same setup but I run about 28psi in each tire. Wears evenly and a lot smoother than the 40psi that where put in them when I had them installed.

I'm running 26-27psi and it seems pretty good. Mine came w/50psi and let me tell you that was like riding in Fred Flinstones car w/tires made of rock!
