Default M&H Bias Ply DOT tire pressures?

Just curious what tire pressures you guys run your M&H Bias plys at? I've been running them on 14psi hot as it gave me the most contact patch, but I never went lower then that, it seems some people go way down below 10 even. What do you guys run?

I would run them around the same pressure as you would run slicks- between 6-8 psi. At 14psi, they are not wrinkling one bit.

I ran the M&H 235's at 6psi. I went the best of a 1.73. The car stayed in the mid 1.7's. You must do a 3rd gear burnout.

Yeah I start the burnout and get it gonig good in the water box and let it pull itself out a bit into the dry, then slowly release the ebrake and continue the burnout till just before the lights. It's a fair burnout
