18lbs? Is that due to the way slicks are designed, or do you run DOT tires that low too? I was pleased and certainly getting some heat in the tire at 29psi front and rear, but I plan on going down in the front for next time.

BJS, what pressure were you running? Have you tried them again at a different pressure?

Ive tried all types of pressures. Lower and higher than what I'm running. Ive found the 18.5/17.5 psi warm works out the best for me.

on my power pures i ran like 20lbs front and rear. Those tires blow on the track anyways. If you hang of like a monkey and use as little lean angle as possible than yeah your good. Once you really start leaning on that tire it will give.
