Title: ATV tire pressure on paved road
Post by: ljonesto on December 18, 2011, 07:50:43 PM
Hi all,
I been taking my daughter for a ride around the block to see Christmas lights.  The road is paved. I was wondering if I could increase my tire pressure from the manufacturers 3psi to something higher? If so what PSI?

Thanks

4psi is always good. 6-8 would be high, you could try around there if you wanted.

Do you plan on showing her the lights at 60mph? If so, run to that bright white light!

strange question, but the harder the surface, the harder the tire. When we go to a track with hard pack we run 10-12psi, in the sand we drop to 4-6psi. I would say just go slow..... ;)
