When I had my other wheels, I would air down to 12 psi. They were 16"x8" steel wheels. I think the width of the wheel is a pretty important factor in he low you can go. I never went below 12 psi as it would make me nervous.

FWIW:
With my BFG Rubi take offs I used to air down to 8 then 12 and finally 20f / 12r to keep my beads on hard texas dirt. As long as you have air and a can of engine starter- experimentation is key.

Funny story to tell relevant to this. Last year was ordering some Maxtrax's and specified black. So, the stateside dealer calls me up and asks, "Why black? Most folks prefer orange so they can see them when they get buried in the mud." My response: "Have you seen our mud?" They were out of black and I had to wait an extra week for them (which was the real reason he called--just to get my okay).

TF Tire carrier and quadratec antenna mount. Gobi Ranger Rack with ARB awning and Extreme Hi-Lift jack. Line-x front grill with a Warn 10kS. I built the Jeep to look like a JKU Jurassic Park Edition had they used this platform.











Hands down, you have the best themed Jeep on this site IMO. Im diggin the whole Jurassic Park thing. Keep up the good work.
