Don:
I don't want to start a new/old thread on what pressure is best, but I just
don't agree with your logic. If I put 42psi in the rear, won't I be causing
the tire to be more rounded, less contact with the road? And vice versa:
less pressure, more contact with the road?
Again, I'm just trying to use the rubber remaining on a worn out tire for
two weeks more.
