Now a tire pressure ??
 
Hi again,

Ok I have the billboards all sorted now with the paint touched up.

They look great. Now for one last question.

:confused:


What pressures are you guys running in the billboards.

With the light weight of the Cobra, I was thinking that normal pressures may not be required and a less pressure setting would be better.

Any thoughts on pressures. - front and rear..:confused:

24 lbs on both ends seems to work well for me, Bernie

I ran mine at 28-30 per recommendations from Krause when I bought them.

Thanks. Yes mine are at 28 lbs. Thought I might drop them as that pressure was for the tire but a far heavier car.

Will trial and get back. I have a very good high quality gauge - a Christmas gift - so will muck around.

Thanks again I know I am at the right start point.

Great yes I will drop to 26 then. I am just on 210lbs. Then drop to your 24 lb recommendation. The Cobra is well under weight with the Shelby aluminum block.

Thanks again.

26#'s all around for my AVONs.

Hi all

Just dropped them to 25 front and 26 rear. I am not sure if I am imagining it, but they appear far better and a softer ride.

It was a 3lb drop at both the front and the rear as the tire gauge I have is accurate and indicated 28lb front and 29 lb rear prior.

Will monitor from here. 25 front and 26 rear now.

Thanks again. Aim far more comfortable when I see the different pressures being run. I have a set of Avons and will drop them as well to 25 front and 26 rear. Again they were set by the tire shop at 30lb..%/
