    Dave, Those are Yokohama 235R70-15 Radials that Diamondback was using to vulcanize their wide whitewalls to a while back. I drop them down to 22 lbs at the track. I do have airbags and normally raise the pressure with more on the right side. The air bags are in front of the axle and my theory was that would reduce spring wrap. Now that I have the traction bars I may reduce the air pressure over all but keep it higher on the right.

    Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong!
