I run which is a big old wide(12") 26 inch mud tire.
10lbs on the street, when I unload the cart off the trailer and I know they'll be only trails, I bag
the tires down between 5 to 7 lbs , thats baggin the tires...... and each brand has a different range, the 5 to 7lbs is just where I have found that works for me, thats
lowest I can run without spinning the tire off the rim.

Now about the slime, I'm not really a big fan of slime, but in South Texas "Benavides" we have cactus that have 4 or 5 inch needles, and they are very hard on tires. so I try to run the least amount of slime that I can. I like the 32 oz bottle of slime, and I try my best to put 8 oz in each tire, I have made the mistake of putting too in my tires and it throws out the balance something crazy. (especially over 30 mph)
If I lived anywhere else other than Texas I probably would not run slime......
Nice. I tried 10psi. I might try 7 or 8 next time.
