Yeap. I run mine 26x11.5x15 at 10 psi that is the only way I get them to hook with my setup.

I've run both the 16" and now the 15" on my car - with both I started around 20# and go down till I don't hook any better. It will depend on the track conditions and car setup. I never ended up below 17# on my 16" (less power then) and I don't get below 15# on my 15"ers.
I worked on the car setup first and got it optimized, now I use tire pressure to compensate for a slippery track (as much as possible anyway).

IMO I would not run tubes or screws.
I have run anywhere from 11 to 25 psi.
But, I would run them at 20 psi or lower when cold. They can gain 2 psi from your burnout.
I don't like to run them lower than 14 psi because they they track funny on the big end.
11-12 psi, and you might spin the tire on the rim.

If u run tubes you should screw the rims too.
Cuz if the tires move the valvestem could get pinched off.
If u run without tubes the tires may lose 4-5 psi over a couple of weeks.
I run 28's and don't run tubes or screws.
I'd run the tires at 15, 18, and 21 psi and see what works best.
