ah, right-o: I'll start my toying with a 28.75" diameter, then - 14.3"
is what Yoko says ought to be it's static radius.
which reminds me of another question I was going to ask. can anyone
give any pointers for determining optimal tire pressure? 35# was too
high for the GYs - they wore more in the center. it was perfect for
the 30" Yokos, though - they've got a very even wear pattern with
minimal cupping, even.
However, these new tires are at their max load capacity at 35psi (the
30s had it at 50psi). Does that mean I ought to drop the pressure a
bit? They don't look over-inflated, though (judging from sidewall
bulge). Thoughts?
