This would depend on the traction issues you may or may not be having, i would run 11 psi then work your way down. Thats what i do with my 15in. slicks at least.
just my .02

ATTENTION - ATTENTION: John@M&H. I am going to have to correct my self on air pressure. Start @ 14-psi and don't go below 10-psi, you can distort the sidewall and you can get loose @ the other end. Sorry for the incorrect information. John@M&H

HAHA, yea ya better listen to him, look at his title . Even though i know alot of people who run less than 10 PSI in there slicks. As a matter of fact i run exactly 10psi in my 24x9.2x15 M+Hs. I can see why THE M+H guy would tell you otherwise to protect his product.

M+H Tires ...and best wishes to your father!
