I finally got my road wheels all refinished. The tires are finally mounted.
Firestone G70X14" RED LINES :D . What air pressure should I inflate these bias ply tires to?

I agree with Bill, the tire pressure in poly's is never a set it and forget it part of the puzzle. You have to always monitor your Tire Presure.

Now if you had a timing retard / Traction control system that took the tires out of the big picture then. Set it to 40 and let the computer do it all. It's like playing a video game in the arcade setting/mode or real life setting/mode. Most of us like the real life mode :D .

For a 69B in Real Life Mode, I will lend you Dennis at Palooza :D .

Once you get to the track, you'll like them better than the BFG's.
