I've heard guys talk about very high tire pressures at Bonneville as well as tat Maxton. One guy at Bonneville said he was running 85 lbs., most seemed to be something like 65 lbs. What about mfgr re

What pressure is common for Maxton where "V" and "Z" street tires are common? How about at El Mirage? It would seem like lower pressure would be better on I,M.H.newbie.O; first factor in tire pressur

To add to JD's info, when I ran Michelin and BFG T/A Z rated tires on the Merk, they (the Michelin guys) wanted additional pressure due to the weight of the car. We were at 200 +- 5 MPH and at 4200 p

This is a major item often over looked. Rim strength is something most take for granted. I have used OEM steel,constructed steel, OEM cast alloy, after market cast alloy, and forged alloy wheels. No

Rick or anybody If a rim is not stiff or strong enough and it flexes or yields under pressure what could happen ? Would it flex as it rotated and eventually break ? Would the dia. of bead area increa

Terry Nish and his crew chief Cec McRae are as careful as any racers I know but their liner crash several years ago was likely the fault of a failed wheel. At the speeds liners are traveling you just

I lack the engineering sophistication to properly analyze any wheel so I am forced to use my best guess. If a tire fails at 150 mph, you will probably crash. If a wheel fails at 150 mph, you WILL cr

Thank you JD. Safety, in my opinion, requires an appropriate level of fear, skepticism, and determination. Back in the beginning, wheels and tires were a huge problem. These days the worst ones are 1

I'm not saying all or any of then are bad. Just bolt them on the car when you get them exactly where you are going to run them and see where they are torqued properly. You could find a hub slightly o
