RE: Tire Pressure Question
depends on the tires you are running and who you ask LOL.
If you are on the stock rubber, I personally don't see any real advantage to lowering the rears below 25 psi......in fact, it's kinda dangerous to run real low rear tire pressures on street radials. Remember, in a quarter mile you are under full throttle on those rears and will (hopefully) get over 100 mph. I wouldn't want to do that on basically flat rear street radials.
Lots of pressure in the front is good to reduce friction but not a stupid amount.....35 psi should be adequate.
