To those of you running 26" Airstreaks, what pressure are you running them at for general use?

8 lbs Larry. 900 hours so far on mostly grass.

I was running about 4. Taxiing across the ramp to the grass was rearing them up quickly. I'll try 8-10 and see...
8-10lbs 400 hrs.
I coat mine with truck bed liner and it is interesting to see the wear pattern. At lower pressure the inside and outside of the tyre seems to be the contact areas - at 10 lbs it is more even.

How long does your bed-liner last?
I coated mine (Herculiner) last winter and they didn't last 20 hours. The second coat peeled off right away and just taxiing across the ramp to the grass wore off the rest.
Larry, wonder if your "very low" tire pressure induced the accelerated wear. Bet you get more than 20 hrs this time.
