what should i run?
running kmc beadlocks and irok stiky 42's.  i currrenly have the rig sitting at 0 psi, but i think it might be too low.  i burped an inner bead while turning on hot dry pavement while pulling out of the shop.  this is why i ask.

anyone with experience?

i run around 3-4 or maybe 5 or 6 or so. i honestly don't have one set pressure i run at. i lower them till they are soft. oh and this was for both my 42" swampas and my 44" pitbulls

0 is way to low and you will blow inner beads pretty frequently if you run it that low (as you found out)

I'd say as low as you can without losing inner beads.  My 37" PBR's on beadlocks won't go below 8 psi without blowing the inner bead. Angry

When I had 36" and 38", the rear I took the valve stem out and when the air was done, I put the stem back in and 2-4lbs up front. But, I guess that also will depend on vehicle weight.
