MT-43 / MT-21 Combo Question Empty
PostSubject: MT-43 / MT-21 Combo Question   MT-43 / MT-21 Combo Question EmptyMon Apr 28, 2014 9:29 am

Looking for a good starting point for on/off road tire pressures for a MT-43 rear and MT-21 front.

Relevant info:  230 pounds geared up

                    Two rim locks on rear

                    No rim lock on front

Heading to the Hatfield-McCoy trails to scuff 'em in.   wings

I ran twelve F&R for my 950 mile Death Valley excursion & it did very well. For technical offroad, I drop top 6 or 7in the rear.
I don't run the M21 in the front, generally it's an M50 or MX71. I don't need to be DOT & they are head & shoulders better than an M21 off road here.

With no rim lock in the front dont go below 15 or so psi in it, if you do it may spin on the rim when you hit the brakes.

I ran 8-10 psi in the mt43 I had on my gasgas for off road and 20 psi on the road.

Trials tires dont hook up worth a crap with more than 10 psi in them so air it down once you get off the pavement.
