I run 21 lbs in those same Hoosier slicks on 10" rims (94" circ.). My car weighs 3,540 +, but most people I've talked to are between high teens and low 20's. Lots of variables between vehicles, but that should give you a starting range.
It will be interesting to see if anyone is much lower or higher, especially in lighter cars. |

I run 22 lbs on good track and no less than 18lbs. If it doesn't hook with 18lbs then I make a shock adjustment. Same tire and weight as Myron. Jim
