Just wondering what all you guys with the Maxxis Zilla's are running for air pressures. I just got my zilla's today on my bf650 sra and was wanting to see what everyone is running for tire pressures. Thanks in advance

7 to 10 psi depends. I have 10 right now for the extra clearance.

I've got 28's on mine and when strictly in mud I've run 42 psi in them blowing them up to right at 30 inches. Really makes them rough on hard pack.

It's a wonder they don't blow a sidewall out with 42psi in them!

I was thinking the same thing.

FWIW, i had 7psi in all the tires and tried lowering it to 5psi. Rides much better on hard pack and they also seem to handle better on the trails
