VR6_Dan 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 make sure you keep the pressure high by checkin em regularly, i wud say 40 psi wud be about right maybe slightly higher Link to post Share on other sites
motormadj 0 Posted July 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2007 right, they are pretty soft at tha mo. i take it that is to keep them on? Link to post Share on other sites

PhatSo 0 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Arg mine run a lot softer than that. I really should keep them pumped up more. is it just mine or do streched tyres run low quicker. I pump mine upto like 35psi and they are all back down to about 15-18 within 2 weeks. Found that out the painfull way the other week in the floods, came though what i thought was just a puddle then crash it appears there was a big pothole hiding in the puddle and now i have a slighty flatter edge on one of my borbets :~(You can only see it if i park and the ding is at the top and you are looking down on the wheel but it pisssssed me off no end.

PhatSo 0 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Yup Dan that would be a ding in the borbets i got from you I have got the arches rolled now and some koni shocks on the back now as a bit of a blag. Plan is to get the coilovers fitted as soon as payday gets here. I will have to get some photos for you. Link to post Share on other sites
