Tire pressure??

[Biffmini]

Need suggestions: I'm going to be running some NOS IRC 3.50X10 trials tires. There's no pressure suggestion on the tires.
It's my first 10" bike.
What's a good pressure to run?

I just went and looked at the 3.5 x 10 that I have and it also doesn't seem to have a pressure listed. The 3 x10 chin shins say 36 lbs cold.

Not so much that you make the cracks in the sidewall spread out too much.

If you're wanting to run NOS tires
You have to live with cracks....

Of course, question remains how big you want to make them.
BTW, anyone else run OOS tires besides me?

Gona run them till there they show signs of danger

I'm leery about fully inflating the cracked ones. Then again I'm just riding around my neighborhood.

Those are very nice for NOS, btw!

Honda CT70, I'd go 15-20.

The pressures listed on a tire are MAX cold. Not vary comfortable to ride with that much pressure. I do as suggested above and stay between 15 and 20. Better grip, better side. Who cares about fuel mileage, anyway?
