Front 30, rear 28 is standard, but it seems like we have ran 26 in the rear too.

And why are you running the pressures that you are in the Power Races?  22 rear is standard.  27 is low.  Which front?  Where are you running at?

I have been running the 1800's for the last few years... (started using them in 2004)

30 in the front, and 26 thru 28 in the rear. (its always best to ask the tire guys opinion, based off of current conditions)

If your not sure...
Just roll up to your tire guy in the morning...
And have him set your pressure.
