yea i agree with arturbo.. alignment off is decreasing your contact patch even more.. and with skinnies thats a no-no.. why only 18 psi???

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by randbcustoms &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">why only 18 psi???</TD></TR></TABLE>

Probably to increase the size of the contact patches, no?
