Hey guys, just took the car out for a spin finally with my 315/50r17 Mickey Thompson et street r’s on 17x10 foregestar f14 beadlocks. Ran them at 26 psi, feels a little low for the street (but confirmed no rubbing whatsoever). What PSI do you guys run these on the street/highway and at the track? Thanks everyone!

I contacted MT and they said to run them at 28 psi for the street. Track the recommendation is 14-18 psi but some can run higher than 18 psi depending on quality of track and suspension setup.

Bump for suggested highway PSI guys
Try 32-34 for street and just keep an eye on you contact patch. It should fo all the way across the "tread" if it isnt hitting the very outside let a little air out down to 30. Below that they will bet a little wavy at higher speed. Cant say for sure that is a bid tire for 10 inch rim. My experience is the MTs wear fast for street driving 5-8000 miles and as hard as they are to get I just save them for the track. Pics?

They get all the contact at 26 psi on the street I’ll tell you that lol. Still can’t believe they don’t rub anything at all. I just drove to fuel up on e85 and back, 3 miles or so each way. Just wanted to make sure they were balanced and weren’t rubbing. Will be putting car back in the air and taking them back off so they don’t get flat spots. I plan on saving them for the track, especially since they’re beadlocks and were a total pain to mount and torque, not looks forward to doing that again. But they look so badass

Do you have a narrow body Hellcat? Curious to know if a 315-50-17 will fit fine on the car with my 17x10 D5 Forgestars with no rubbing or fitment issues.

I do. Shorter rear sway bar endlinks, trim/reposition fender liner, and LOTS of sledgehammer time. Yes, I’m surprised they still don’t rub even after all of that.
