    ya wouldn really wana be runnin lower than recommended cos there more of a chance the bead comin off its seat on stretched tires than proper size tires for the wheels

    I've had 50psi in stretched tyres. There's always 50psi in my rear tyres. I like a bouncy slidey ride. lol

    Is the drifting ok with that amount of pressure? If not, put more in, but stand well back.

    with more pressure in the tyres there is less tyre on the road as the middle of the tyre will be pushed out and harder sidewall better for drifting because less grip ,more chance of tyre poping off the rim with lower pressure on streched tyres ,

    I work selling tyres and i love streched tyres.... If its a road car i'd Keep 36PSi in the back and 36PSi in the front... But if your Driftin 45 and 40 would be good. If your driving streched tyres on a road car mind the pot holes the rides a bit more bouncier tyres pumped harder but is better than a rim gettin buckled
