Any one do it?
Let out some air before you do a 1/4 mile run on your rear tires?
so the outter edge of the tire touches the ground along with the inner edge.

Yeah its for traction. With the f-bodies, I would lower to 20psi. Some guys do 18, and go lower with slicks.

I run 28psi in the rear with my stock rims and tires. All of my best runs have been at this psi. See my best time in my sig.

I dropped it down to 22 psi on the wife's car and she couldn't hook to save her life. She put it back up to 36 and it did much better. Going to find some 16" wheels and put Nitto 245-50-16 DR's on them to see if they help. I was cutting 1.9 60's on those tires with my blown LS1 running 11's at 124mph so I am guessing the AT5 shouldn't be able to spin them too much.
