I have trouble getting traction at the track in my XR8 so I'm a little curious about your setup. Cheers. |

i'l give you a tip - dont lower the psi on low profile tires
it does next to nothing. a low profile tire will peform at its best when at the reccomended psi

I used to have Dunlop SP9000's but got new tyres on the back.....
I belive lowering the pressure in my tyres does help but it is fairly over rated it doesnt make a huge difference its only slightly better or so i have found.... When i was there couple months ago i was running with normal pressure, getting constant 13.6's then dropped to 19psi and started getting constant 13.5's Was about 0.06 second difference i was averaging between standard pressure to dropping the pressure to 19psi.... so not huge but it is something. its that small of a benefit it probably not worth the extra damage you do to your tyres and iv been told it also puts more strain on your driveline..... So yes 3 would be right in saying theres no point, but if your after that tiny drop off your time then id say give it a go.... Im half ****ed writting this so im sorry if it doesnt make sense lol :P |
