What PSI to run Nitto's ?
 
I am going to be getting the BMR torque arm and lower control arms with the relocation brackets. I'm also getting the 275/40 Nitto's to run. My question is what psi do you guys launch and at what RPM with an M6? Thanks for your help

I use to keep mine between 18-22 psi. It depends on track preo and how hard you want to launch ..

Mine seem to hook best at 20psi. 1.66 60' lowered, SY3500, 3.73's, TR224, Spohn TA.

Thanks for the help, Mine has been lowered and I will be ordering the panhard rod also to help. The best 60ft I could get before was a 2.0 with street tires and I lowered the tire pressure to 20psi and got that. So with the Nitto's and the suspension I should see alot better 60ft time. Thanks guys.

I ran them at 18 when I was at the track to try and "hook", I've seen people go lower though... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My best results were between 14 to 16 at the track. Come down in increments of one and find the air pressure that best helps you. Cheers.
