And 18 PSI is about the lower limit with tube type tires... Much lower and under hard braking, tire bead will slip, pulling valve core out of tube, and makes for an exciting handful if in any kind of confined area....

Tyre Slip re: 8:50
Hi everyone, I've just had a valve stem tear due to slight tyre slip. It's the first time I've experienced this & fortunately, the tyre didn't deflate immediately. I found it flat a couple of days later. NB: Normally run main tyre pressure at around 18-20 psi (single puck brakes) & last landing was off-airport on bitumen with hard braking!
I'm in the process of swapping 8.50 tyres due to landing gear setup tapper edge wear and replacing both tubes as the old ones would be at least 10 yrs old. My question to the form is any suggestions on prevention of tyre slip other than higher tyre pressure or screws into the tyre bead. All the best, Paul
