What pressure for 17" Goodrich slicks?

[Dave Wilson]

Can you tell me what pressures to put in 17" tyres please (24x61x17) for use on the track?

never used this make but,

just about every make of slick / competition tyre i have come across has an ideal HOT working pressure of 30-32psi

start off below this pressure (varies due to weather, etc.) do a couple of medium runs and check - adjust to suit , then check occasionally!

I have never used slicks on the evo, just a032, but in general I think that you have to put more pressure on slicks than with normal sports tyres. The standard evo pressure is 2.2 bars front and 1.9 bars rear.
Having tyres that have more grip you will be able to go into a curve at higher speed and there will be more tyre side flex, so if you increase the pressure you will get a better handling.
If you increas the rear pressure you will get more oversteer, but don't exagerate with it.

Try to start with 2.3bars front and 2.1 rear.
