personally if you're starting at 60 mph I don't think you'll spin but I personally would run 18-20.....that's just me though.....you'll get different opinions

If you are going from a roll, and starting in 3rd, you better be starting at around 60-70 MPH. Even with the 4.10's 3rd will handle that MPH.

If you go from a dig, I would hope you could launch it a little harder than 2,000 RPM's but you are going to have to remember something.

YOU ARE ON THE STOCK REAR!!! Those things with 4.10's do not like sticky tires at all. I know because I went through 2 rears in less than a month before buying my Dana 60.

I would run about 18-20 psi in them.
