M/T "Bonneville" 24.5 x 7.50 x 16" Inflation?

Arrgghh...

I forgot what the recommended maximum pressure is on these tires.  IIRC, the guy at M/T suggested 90 PSI, but I'm not sure.

The side of the tire says not to exceed 40PSI, and I know I was over 75psi.

These are front tires.

I believe it says 40 psi to seat them?  I got a hold of M/T on my ET fronts, and they said 55 psi , so that is what I run 55 psi nitrogen.  :cheers:

Appropriate pressure is proportional to speed . 100 psi is normal on fast streamliners .
