I am running 16.9 x 34 tubeless good years on 16" rims on a John Deere 50 in the 4500 and 5500 class at 8 pounds of air .They still seem a little stiff. Howlow do you think I can go on air?

I think it makes a diference in the tire and ply, I have tried alot of things. I pull 6500 & 7500 with 6 ply at 15 lbs. The hole is flat in the hole they are 18/4x38.

I am running the same setup. I run about 7 psi. sometimes 6. Depending on the track. Just my opinion.

If you are going to make a mistake on tire pressure. It's better to be 2 psi above instead of 2 psi below ideal.

Look at your track when you spin out. It needs to be flat, arched up is too low arched down too much air. Every track is different and every weight class is different and the track can very from one hook to the next, so no one can tell you the information you want, just an educated guess is what it's all about.
