Tire pressure on beach sand

They played good ball I gotta give them that. Chapman and Tanaka are still throwing harder than ever and the tribe choked. I just had high hopes for the tribe because of their record breaking season only to get shot down in the first series of the playoffs. That's ok tho. That's baseball tho. It only counts when it counts

 

btw hahaha

 

P)
Shut up....who asked you. Lolll.. Oh wait..you hijacked it .....lollll
I'm right there with ya Alex. Sucks they lost. I see it from a positive side. Yankees were not expected to this far. Yes, they beat a very good Indians team. They beat the Astros 3 straight. ......at home. To win the WS. You have to win on the road.
Next year. With their farm system, vets, and returning guys. Yankees will be a team to beat to get to the WS.

Sorry dude. Looks like a rebuilding year for you guys next year. Lolllll. .

 

Discount ???????. Did I miss a post. ??

 

Thanks @chris4x4. Looking in to it.

Also. Went to play in the sand today. And the by "permit" only rule is strictly enforced. So..I had to pass. A $15 yearly permit is worth it. So I see one in my future.

 

Besides the permit any other NJ stipulations? like shovel, jack, tow strap, spare tire, etc?

 

Yes.... Good point aggrex. I Have several. The strap, spare and Jack. The rest on my Wishlist. The least of which I may have an issue with. A piece of plywood measuring at least 5/8s thick, and 12 by 12. Lolll. And why....you ask....to support your jack if your Umm.. A dumb ass enough to run sandy beaches without airing down. Lolll. This..so you can jack up your jeep to fill in the holes you dug yourself self into. And....you will need a shovel. Loll. In most cases here in NJ. An adult beverage is most likely the cause for getting stuck. Lolll.
Which.....i do not do...or condone.

 

But back to OB tanks. Please correct if I'm wrong. But from what I'm seeing certain tanks will only get you up to 22 psi. So if I air down to say 15. A tank will only get me 7 more psi. And I'll still have stop at my local gas station, pay like 2 bucks for 5 minutes to air back up to 33.??? If I'm missing something....please chime in. Am I missing something?

 

Awesome....so apparently I did miss something. Wasn't sure...didn't seem right what I read. I have access to several high pressure compressors at work. So,won't cost me a dime there. Thanks 4x4Chris. Sorry....@Chris4x4. Lolll.

By the way dude. Nice to know I can air down at Dairy Queens curbs. And air back up. Cheap. A cone with sprinkles ain't cheap. Lolll.

 

Umm...yeah...co2....high pressure air. Thanks dude. So that's why we keep you around. To point out the obvious. Loll. Sorry dude. You left me no choice. Lolll. Had to..... Still love ya.lolll.

 

Welllllllll, JK Bob. What you say now? Go yankeez -- Go home!!! Go Houston!!! Sorry Bob, just couldn't help myself.
Later

It's all good ziggy. As another member here put. We are a sarcasic bunch. Lolllll. I've been known to be a douche bag too. .

I take it your a Stros fan. Congrats. It was a good series. And I will admit.....the better team won. The Yanks just made a series of it. Made them prove they belonged there. The positives really for both teams. A good mix of young good players. And some vets that still got it. Both teams should be around for years. The Yankees became a better team in that series. They know now what the post season pressure is all about now. Good luck to the Astros. Should be a good WS.

Oh...and by the way. . Wait till next year.

 

Ok....so back on thread.
So, I picked up a better nylon strap. A shovel, tire deflators, and first aid kit. Stock jack and a piece of plywood at the ready. Im ready for the beach. Along with the trail axe I won here from our very first giveaway. I'm ready for the beach, and trail. (Eventually) I set up tire deflators using my spare. So their set at 15 psi and ready to go. Still looking at a co2 tank (thanks to @chris4x4). Or a portable compressor. But in the mean time. There is a gas station not far from the beach. Permit application is in the mail. . Headin for the beach.

 

18# and 16#.

You have a 6 ply tire so you don't have to air down very much as the softer tire is more plyable than an 8 or a 10 ply, which most people have and will offer advise based on their setup.

You'll probably here them say they run 5 psi with no problem. I'd imagine those people have 10 ply tires that are so stiff they look inflated even at 0 psi under the lightweight jeep ie. general grabber.

All the tires on all my rigs have been 6 ply.

You didn't mention the width of the rim, which is another important factor here. The more narrow the rim, the tighter the bead, the less likely to pop one.

Either way tho, narrow or wide, you will be happy at 18 front and 16 rear. Floats well and rides soft and smooth. At that psi you don't have to worry about popping a bead even at faster speeds.

If you do have a more narrow rim, drop it to 12 front and 10 rear and you will be climbing some awesome sand dunes if you want.

 

So dude. Just curious. You don't agree with any posts above yours? Noticed you didn't click "like" on any. And just a IMO. Not all sand is the same depending on the beach and what part of the country. Hard, soft, wet, dry, fluffy. Just saying dude. I THOUGHT 15 psi, based on what I've read and seen.( TeraFlex, Extreme Terrain, Rough Country etc) Is a good starting point. What beach do you wheel on? Where at? Just saying dude.

 

Not that I don't agree, I didn't read them to be honest and that's also why I didn't like any.

I figured I'd just give my 0.02 from my own experience.

And that is 18 and 16 on a 6 ply can handle any sand I have been in and we have all kinds of sand including very deep soft sand.

Now for climbing I drop that down to 12 and 10 if necessary but I try not to trail at that psi since I lack beadlocks.

It's also been my experience that whatever can get you thru deep soft sand can get you thru any other kind of sand.

There is so much sand here I'm tired of it too be honest and I've played around a lot with the psi in it.

Yesterday I made it up a dune with 16 and 14 and my buddy required 10 all around.

Both of us 35s on a 14 jku. His are 10 ply mine are 6.
