Prepping my car for tomorrow's track passes, what psi should I run in my Nitto's (555r)

i like right around 18 with mine.
I do 18 if I plan on racing.
Yes. I agree with above. Start at 18 and you may even find going a little lower might hook you up better. Good luck and let us know how they fair out for you.
sounds like a plan. 18 it is and ill keep you up to date on hook
:goodluck:
first time ever so i might need it :xfingers:Quote:

I start at 18 and work my way down with those.
well i was set and ready to go but it is 100° today and 107° with the humidity...the track temp was near 130 so i decided to wait on going today

Did you have dr's with gears before the stallor stock gears? I ask because I tried something similar with some v710's at the track and my car would not have any of it.:suicide:Quote:

Next set was AAG (basically factory). They were quiet till I started to race again. After about 50 passes the pinion bearing bearing sorta welded itself to the pinion. This was the set I did the 12.559 with.
The current set is a factory set of used 3.23's that my buddy installed. I've yet to take them to the track (It's too hot to race these days here in PHX). I had them installed for the cruise to the LA Invasion. No noise over the last 1,000 miles or so.
Now all I can think about now is how to make my rear last with 3.73's:lol:
Sort of hoping that 12.5 was before the stall
Don't forget the average DA here in PHX is 3500'. Take about .3 seconds off for sea level...Quote:

Gotta find me a used 10-bolt.
If your still looking next spring, I may have one with less than 25K to part with...depends on how my mod budget looks over winter...and how bored I get when there is 6' of snow blocking the WS6 into the garage.Quote:
