For the track? Start at about 20 psi and go lower or higher as needed.

what size nitto? and do you mean street pressure or I assume you mean track pressure?

my 17in nittos I ran at 20psi on the street and 17 at the track

with my 16in nittos I ran at 22psi on the street but didnt use them at the track, probably would have went with the same 17-18.

just go to the track and play around with what works

I would start at 20 pounds and adjust either up or down as necessary. It will be a trial and error event as each car is unique.

I run my Nitto NT555R's at 15psi hot for the track. I cut a best of a 1.76 60' with stock suspension and a lowered car.
