PDA : what pressure in your SX? offroadr35 02-22-2002, 10:05 AM I have 38.5x14.5r16.5 Swamper SXs and am still playing with air pressures. I know lots of you have this tire...what pressures do you run onroad/offroad? Theyre not on beadlocks...yet... -Steve jhama78 02-22-2002, 10:14 AM I run @ 18 on the road and anywhere below that off road. They are mounted on 10 inch wide eatons. -j-rOd http://home.off-road.com/~rt_604/images/Projects/Babe/36sx.jpg SonoraBob 02-22-2002, 10:17 AM I run 20# on the road. 6# on the trail. The Rockslut 02-22-2002, 10:18 AM Originally posted by Bob/CA I run 20# on the road. 6# on the trail. Ditto! I have 15x10" wheel offroadr35 02-22-2002, 10:21 AM thanks, i've been running 20 on and 12 or so off. just making sure i wasn't missing something. -Steve Jason M 02-22-2002, 10:23 AM I really would not advise running any less than 12 on a 16.5" rim without beadlocks. You will really run into a problem with blowing beads if you do... On my 38.5x14.5x15" sx's I run 4-6lbs on the trail and max 20 on the street... camo 02-22-2002, 10:36 AM 4 to 5 psi welndmn 02-22-2002, 11:31 AM 20 on the street, 5 on the trail H8monday 02-22-2002, 11:33 AM With 38.50x14.50 15, on 10" beadlocks, and a 4000 lb rig. I run 25 psi on the hwy 4 to 7 psi on the trail 3 psi or less, in deep snow. wngrog 02-22-2002, 12:05 PM I used to run mine at 3-4 lbs until I slung this beast D60 in the rear and now I run 6 in the front and 10 in the rear for clearance. They work better at 4lbs though... flimmy 02-22-2002, 02:01 PM I run 5 all the time on or off the road. There 33x15.5's on 10" rims. I'm going to 35x15's and will run the same on the 10" rims.
