Recommended tire pressure for bashing and racing?

Like setting a precise baseline, proper pressure keeps grip steady. For Pro-Line Badlands MX 1.9 on 12mm hex wheels, start around 20–25 psi (front and rear) for general bashing, then fine-tune ±2–3 psi for grip on mud or loam.

Maintain grip with tire maintenance tips: check pressure before runs, avoid long storage under load. Use ideal tire selection based on terrain.

Takeaways:

  • Start 20–25 psi
  • Adjust 2–3 psi by surface

  • Suitable for front or rear

How Do Badlands MX Tires Perform on Wet Asphalt or Hard-Packed Surfaces?
