hey up!

What tyre pressures are best for playing in the mud? Im running 195/80/15 greenway machos on my zuki. max pressure is 34psi, and ive been as low as 28psi on my crappy old tyres. just wanted to know what the rest of you are doing! dont fancy knackering my new ones, but i want maximum performance without popping the tyres off the rim.

cheers in advance

On my Jimny std pressures are 24 psi. I run 215/80-15 Colway MT tyres at 20psi on the road and as low as 16psi if its realy muddy. Managed to climb a mud slop that a friend with Anaconda's couldn't get up!

jimny gary:
same here, 18psi on and off road, would lower it if conditions were bad.

gate78:
Right then, i think ill try 20psi this weekend. I assume the tyres dont pop off the rim too easily at these kind of pressures? cos that would ruin a good day out  :(

glaggs:
Start dropping much below 14psi and you may start to run into problems, or if you run low pressure and drive agressivley. One other thing to remeber is make sure you have the right rim width for the tyres you want to fit. Try fitting big fat tyres on standard, narrow rims and then try running realy low pressure you will be more likely to loose a tyre.
