let us know how you get on ?

Tyre pressure is set for the weight of the dub, it doesn't matter what tyres you fit as long as long as the weight of the bus doesn't change dramaticly, then run factory pressures.

According to The Samba.com it recomends a tyre pressure of 29psi.

Are you running normal car tyres (2 ply radials) or van tyres (6 or 8 ply)

I am running van tyres (8 ply) and run it at about 35psi on the front. Feels like power steering.....
