Default Nitto 555r Tire Pressure

On my car i only have SSRA, Lid, Catback, Cutout, !torque management, LCA Brackets, LCA, SFCs, I am vert, 3.23, and 555r

I have read about PSI for racing at the track 16-22 psi and i was wondering if it would be the same for racing on the street. Does running the tire that low hurt the side wall at all? Is it safe to drive on the 16-22 psi to the gas station to fill them back up?

Just wondering since i dont have that much money and i cant afford to jack up this set i just bought

I've always run mine at 20-22psi just cruisin. I've done nights of "cruising" at 17psi without issue.

I've never run mine over 22psi. Claims of the center section wearing out faster than the edges with 25 or more psi.

I've run my 275/40/17 Mickey Thompson DRs for 100 miles at 13psi before.

You'll be fine!
