<VV> Corvair tire pressure

[Clark Hartzel]

Remember that in the 60's we didn't have radial tires.  If you put 30 pounds
of air in a nylon bias ply tire on the front of a Corvair, you might only
have an inch or so of contact pattern touching the ground!  My way of
thinking is you want at least 4-5" of fore and aft contact to match the 5"
of width on the ground.  The 40%-60% weight distribution divided by 2 is
20-30 so 20 pounds front and 30 pounds rear is pretty close to the
recommended pressure.
