Stock Puller Question

I would like to try my luck at the #5500 . I got a 98 f130 4x4 4.6 auto. I was wondering what tire pressure to start out with ?

I'm unsure of what you are asking for... is this part of a pulling competition?

Usually the lower the pressure the better... I'd say with the tires that came from the factory. Just a guess but seems 25# would give you a good contact patch with running on the the side wall. The bigger the patch, the harder it is to spin the tire.

I'm just talking/typing out loud, I've never done any pulling like that before.
