Was this with the harder RR compound you ran a lot or the softer 25B?
Thanks!

Your right Jason, to low of tire PSI may roll the tire on the rim but if it feels good/works for them who's going to argue that.
Just changing your tire PSI up or down is going to change other things and what people are feeling is a bit better rake or the affective spring rate, who knows.

Do your rims have a safety bead? Not much surface area to the seating area of the outer rim half? I've had problems busting the bead off a rim at 0psi and some of the spun aluminum rims the tires fall off the bead Before all the air is out when pulling the valve core.
TedV , I think I've said this before. Have a new back up and check it back and forth, one less thing on my mine.
