18\" tire pressure?

What is the recommended tire pressure for stock 18" wheels and tires?

I just got a new set to replace my original 17" and XGT's.

Re: 18

The owner's manual on my 2000 RT says 29 psi cold, front and rear...Which is a good place to start, then you can tweak for your driving habits/conditions...

I run 25 psi cold rear (traction), and recently bumped my fronts up to 32 psi cold (handling)...due to my specific suspension set-up...

The 18's will look very cool on your GenI...Buy an extra set of rears (or two) while they are still cheap!

Re: 18\" tire pressure?

I have been changing my pressures a bit, and so far have found that 30 psi front/rear cold works well for me.

Re: 18

Agree with Gerald - 29 in all four corners seems to work for me. If I forget to check them and the pressure goes down to 25 lbs or so, the rears start to spin when I get on it. Heck, the rears start to spin whenever I REALLY get on it.....
