tire pressure on slicks?

[wikdsvt]

I have a set of tubed and screwed slicks for my 5000# truck.
what pressure should I run? I don't want the rear end to get all squirrelly at high speed due to soft sidewall on a heavy truck

What front tires do you have . That will have a lot to do with the feeling down track. I would start at like 15psi or so

Depends if they are stiff wall slicks, depends on the tire size etc.

What's he manufacture recommend PSI? They do list this info with some searching

I went to a radial eventually but I would start high and see how it goes. Try 20psi, if that doesn't work AT ALL, drop to 15. I always liked that method of launching on the street and seeing if that rubber laid down was even across the tread width. Good luck! Get a camera in someones hands too! We all want to see some motown muscle.
