Ok i have a set of MT ET Streets 26x11.5x16 I was wondering what tire pressure i should start with at the track?? Oh ya and its a M6. Also if you can give me an estimate of what time i will run that would be nice to.
I ran a 12.9@113 with a 2.2 60ft on street tires.

My mods are
LS6 Intake
SLP Lid
MS3
Pacesetter LTs
3" to 4" merge
4" E cutout
magnaflow CB
Centerforce Clutch
Stock 10 Bolt 3.42 Gears

****I know my 10 bolt is on bought time please do not come here to tell me that u post ******!!!!!*******

 

A good starting point is 16lbs. If it bogs the car down add a little pressure.

 

I usually start at 16 as well. My best pass has been on 14 though

 

Ok i started them at 25psi and i launched on the street and they hooked after 20ft with a 4k slip.... BUMP

 

25 is WAY too high, shoot for 16 then drop them by .5 pound until they stop getting you a better 60' time

 

Mine likes 12-13 psi. at the track, I run 18 on the street.

 

If you have a compact air compressor with you at the track, then start at 16-18 PSI and go lower. If no improvement, try adding air. I usually would start at 24 PSI, since I did not carry a compact air compressor, and drop the pressure from there. I noticed my best 60' on my setup was around 18-20 PSI. Each setup will vary, but now you have a decent starting point for pressure.

 

ok thanks guys!! I am gonna start at 25 just because i dont have a portable compressor.

 

waste on time on mt drs...you should atleast start at 18

 

Are these Drag Radials or the bias ply cheater slicks?

 

by the way he described them they sound like the bias ply et streets...i usually start mine at 13.5 cold after the burnout its around 15psi, i normally cut 1.4x 60's all day long

 

i start at 14 with mine..

 

Start around 15-16. I have had them down to 11 and didnt like the way it felt going down the track. 14 seems to be the best for me, went 1.58 60'.

I know some have mentioned since the bias ply is not as stiff as a street radial I would loose mph. I have ran both and noticed no difference in mph.

 

the lower psi you go the more mph you lose.. the high the psi (or more spinning) the higher your mph but lower e/t.

 

with 25 psi, your contact patch was probably only 1/4 of your entire tire.

like everyone said, start with 16 and work your way down.

I usually run 8 in mine

 

Thanks guys!!!

 

Ya I have heard alot of guys running at 14-16 on them and you should get your 60' down to a high 1.7 or low 1.8x that should result in a 4-6 tenths drop overall

 

I run mine around 12-14. Starting at 16 is definitely a good idea as others have said.

 

My best times are with 19 psi.

 

I run mine at 13.5
