Tire Pressure?

Post by awraskins »

I think it would be helpful to add tire pressure into this game as it gives a ton of advantages to different tracks. Whenever I'm out doing a quick desert dash I drop my pressure to 12 psi for better traction, then when i get to the track... back up to 20 psi to get those knobbies in the dirt! Idk, I thought it would be a simpler solution for traction.

do your tires have majorly soft sidewalls or something?? I've always run 11-14 psi even on really big jumpy tracks.

You should most definitely drop your tire pressure down from 20 for MX.

With the way the game handles traction, your bike already acts as if it's at the ideal tire pressure.

I agree with everyone else lol, 20 is high. I'll run 7-14 front and back just depending on what the track is. With more jumps or anything big I will run higher pressure. Trails I will lower the pressure down. 7-8 psi only if it is muddy. Being able to adjust your tire pressure in-game would be kind of cool. I'm not sure if it would be worth adding in game though. Maybe if it really did effect the traction you got, per whatever psi you run, varying from track to track.

20 isn't cooked. it's higher than normal but we run around 18 psi for offroads with ultra heavy tubes.
