P1000 Tire Pressure in the Rocks

[Jbird]

These rocky trails we are riding up here in Colorado are not too harsh with four adults on board but with 2 adults the ride will shake the fillings out of your teeth. Checked the tire pressure and its 15# all the way around. Don't know how low I can go and still protect the rims. Going to pick up a good low pressure gauge when we go into town.

Ya. It is rough running with that much pressure. Lowering will help. I think I am runing around 12.
Are you familiar with tire pinch?
Going too low and this will become a risk when riding hard terrain.
Just a thought.
Thanks

I'm pretty close to hondasxs. Run to low and they'll pop off but then again too high and they are easier to puncture. 10-12 is magic numbers for most situations

I run 6-7 in my beadlocks on rock but my tires are 8 ply. I would run 10 probably if you want to save your wheels.
