How do you decide tire pressure to run?

I run 3-4 psi in the snow, 8-10 in sloppy conditions, and 10-12 if the trails are dry. 25-28 psi on the street.

Tire pressure is the cheapest most effective mod you can make to improve offroad traction. You're not running 28 psi on the trail, are you?Ecomike said:Geezzzz, 3-4 in snow, 8-10-12 psi in slop, I didn't know you could run tire pressures that low!
I run 26 to 28, measured when the tire is at ambient temp, usually 26 front, 28 rear. 26 front steers better on the freeways. I have 235R75-15s.
