Cool

You will have to find this on your own, You can go as low as 12psi or mabey even 10psi, but you will have to find what works for your car. This is part of tuning your car.

18psi. seems a little high. For the track I'd try 12-14psi. As for the street...I'd imagine around 20psi. maybe. As 88workcar stated...just experiment with different pressure and see what works best.

ET streets perform best at 15-20 psi. They are designed to work at a higher air pressure than other slicks.

So what do you run in the 1/4?
