[FC] rampside tire pressures.

[Clark Hartzel]

No, since you are sitting over the front wheels and the wheelbase is 13"
shorter than a car, there is more weight on the front than a car.  I ran
radial tires on my Rampside and used 35 pounds in the rear and 28 in the
front.  If you run too low a pressure in the front, it gets hard to turn the
steering wheel at slow speeds or parking.  Too high a pressure in the front
and you will feel every tar strip and bump in the road.  Just experiment
until you find a happy medium.
Tim Colson, pipe in here and tell us what you run!

having owned Corvair cars for many years, this is my first FC, a rampside.
Is a 10 psi tire pressure difference between front and rear apply to FC's as
well as cars?  Or should it be the same?
George.
