Old Scalyback & denny
good evening all
in the current vks737 mag there is an excellent story by jol fleming on how to work out what pressures you need for desert travelling by measuring the footprint
i believe he is a person who knows what is what as when i met him several years ago he was driving a ford ute around in the desert with a set of ats on the back
maybe david could get permission to reproduce the article
for those with the mag it is worth the read

Hi Zuk
Fill us in on the 1ft rule - or is that 300mm rule

Robin,as far as i understand it you air down till you're tyres are 300mm on the bottom. Maybe different depending on the size of the tyre.Bob.
