Tire pressure on 28" ET Drags. On a M6 car 9" rear with 3:70 gears launching at 6k on a 175 shot where should I start as far as tire pressure. The tires are screwed into the rim, and are tubed.
Thanks.
Thanks.

In my opinion, I would start at 16 psi with a good burnout and go down from there. Eventually, you will find that the sweetspot of the tire should be in the 12- 13 psi range, but every car is different. Do your burnouts the same way every time for best results.

trial and error pretty much since they are screwed on to the rim dont really have to worry about the rim spinning in the bead. i keep my slicks aired to 15 psi havent really messed with the air that much still tryin to tune the car as long as i dont break anymore drivetrain components
