BFG tyre pressures

[lhd]

What pressures for a Syncro westy running 15" BFG's 215/75/15?
was sure I asked this before but couldn't see it using the search option.
Better write it down this time.

Neil advised me 35 front 38 rear or thereabouts for the Grabber at's (same size as yours) which I now have on the 'velle. You'll probably need 2-3 psi up on that fully loaded.
A good test to get you in the ball park is go for a drive and check the temps across the tyre with your hand - it should be even across the width. Cool in the middle, too low. If there's a gradient across the tyre, your geometry's way out.
Your hands will be more temp sensitive than you think, so it's a good place to start if you don't have access to a laser pyrometer.

I ended up putting in 38/40 psi.
They still seem to bulge out at the bottom though, drives a lot better as they were down to 30/32.

I did my first tyre rotation today too using the info from the Wiki.
I need to get this clonking sorted from the front, Im pretty sure its the top wishbones just need to find someone with a press or a vice.

Blimey! The sticker on mine for 205/80/16 gives it as 26psi front, 30psi rear. Seems a lot lower

2.5 bar front / 3.0 bar rear

Aidan put a thing up on Wiki about this
