I've recently fitted BFG A/T on my Raider IFS.
What is the recommended pressure for driving in sand. I've heard a lot of comments about the tyre slipping off the beading etc...
I'm used to Bridgestone Dueller AT which can run in the sand at a very low pressure (I think the last time I went to 0.9 BAR), however I'm cogniscent of the fact that BFG is a very good all rounder..
Can anyone please advise?
Thanks

What he said I went as low as 0.5 on mine when driving some dunes, but no fast cornering at that low pressure.george wrote:Hi Ferdinand
