MX Tire Pressure Settings Guide

Riding several tires as well as compounds over the years, I decided to write some of the optimal tire pressures that I felt worked the best in a variety of conditions. Here are five major brands and their pressures, that I thought could be some benefit to you. If you’re wondering what PSI to run in your new tires, look no further than the tire pressure bible below.
