Haha its all guido's fault..he forced me to keep bumpin up my pressure and I'm glad he did...Once ya get used to running high psi, you end up lovin it...

At first whenever I bumped it up another 10 psi it felt like i was gonna die too, but eventually it grew on me and now i cant ride with anything less than 75-80...but thats prob just cuz im a squidly mcsquid stain

Damn i figuered at the 50-60 mark you were near blowing the tire up... shows how much i know about tires pressure though.

I think over 100psi is when it gets a tad scary,Pretty sure the highest psi Guido ran was 110psi (too much for me...but he kills it on high psi) He exploded a tire after driftin and said it sounded like a bomb goin off.

I changed a tire for him last week...Then A few days later he called and said It blew up while it was just sittin in his garage The tire had a 10" rip down the middle it So yeah 100+ psi is probly pushin it

can you do no hander circels on that 70psi tires?
i always ride between 50 and 65, i always start high, than i reduce pressure till its at the point that the nohanders aint falling in the circel.
also there is a lot of difference in tires.. race tires i use a lot off pressure but when you use a pilot road 1 (my favorite, than i can go as low as 36psi before it starts to feel strange

Guido does em with no problem,pretty sure paul h and reckless ryan run high psi also and they can do anything...haha...I never tried no hander O's, my FB skills are gahbage while doin O's...goin straight is no problem lol ...maybe it feels weird cuz I circle to the right, but more than likely its just because I dont use it as much as I should...

Gettin good with my FB is definately on my 2013 goal list

for going right...

My brain is retarded.. I fb circle right.. But if I try anything hb my brain wants to go left...

I still cannot for the life of me get any kind of circle with the damn hb!

Recently bumped my pressure up to 35 and it was a lot different.. Still trying to get used to it..

cool thanks bros im around 32psi, anybody know the pros n cons on the d616, and why some people run there tires backwards?

[BU_Stunts1]

over 50psi i start to wonder if my face will be blown off! ctfu

D616 are awesome in rain clutching up in the rain like a beast dipping through dirt back ally's from chp they hook up great when u need it to an I've drifted on em a lil but It felt like the wanted to grab a bit more than tires with more contact (less grooves ) but I'm also getting used to my drifts again after finally flipping my clip ons just my opinion

What's a good pressure up front? I straightened my front rim, and got it all nice and powder coated but today I was working on circles and managed to put some scratches and dents in it already

I'm not really sure how they got there, but I think it was from coming down hard at an angle because I stalled a time or two. Or sometimes I'll just put my inside foot down and swing the front to the ground if I loose balance and I guess the rim is bottoming out from not enough pressure...
