LOL!

It depends on the sand. If the sand is "heavy" you want to go up a bit on your tire pressure(6-8lbs)This will let the tires spin so the "heavy" sand won't BOG your motor, but if its loose and soft definatly want to go to about 4-5 pounds for better traction. If you go under 4lbs your tire may fold,causing the paddle to lay down under power.



But don't take my word for it.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I would say that the the sand is loose and soft, so fine that you can't hold it between your fingers.

I run 3 psi cold in the rear and 5-6 psi in the fronts at Glamis regularly, seems to be the best for hook up on mine. The sand is very fine and the weather has been dry. At 6-8 it would be a ditch digger!

Ok what about tire pressure for normal dirt? hehe
the tires on the ds650 I test drove were really low on air I thought, they looked kinda flat. Very squishy, made it hard to turn. Dunno if the dealer put the reccomended amount in them or not
