My tires run at about 35 PSI, how much should i deflate them for offroading?

KTMrider

If you dont have bead locks, prolly 15-20 is what i run.

TGL2000

yea no beadlocks...

XJSETH

i run 9-10 psi on no bead locks.

How much is too much? generally..

depends on the tire. Also with 31's do you have a 10" or 8" wide rim?

TGL2000

im not positive and i cant check right now but im gonna go with 10"

96_xj

well 8" rim holds the bead better than a 10" rim. so i woud say no less than 20

TGL2000

thanks, ill keep that in mind next time im wheelin

that looks like an 8 inch rim, but it's aluminum. so i wouldn't go less than 16 or more than 20. also, 35 is probably a bit much for the road. i'd go with about 28.

TGL2000

tomorow ill lower them to 28 to see if it rides better then

it also depends on how the tire forms over obstacles. i know my tires are so soft that i can only run about 15psi minimum otherwise if i hit rocks hard enough the rock will hit the rim. (and i dont have to hit it hard for that to happen.)

96_xj

very true because i have run 3 psi in my tires before without bead lock and i never hit rim nor did I lose a bead in a day of wheeling in the rocks



But i noticed you the generals, i ran my the lowest (on these same rims) at 17psi with success. never went lower
