The most common off-road surface. Airing down on gravel and graded dirt roads transforms the ride from jarring to smooth, especially on washboard sections.
| Setup | PSI Range |
|---|---|
| Standard Wheels | 16-28 PSI (varies by vehicle weight) |
| Beadlock Wheels | N/A -- not needed for gravel |
Start modest. 22-28 PSI for heavier rigs. Keep speeds smooth to reduce heat buildup. The biggest improvement is in washboard control -- aired down tires absorb the vibration instead of bouncing.
Going too low on gravel creates a mushy steering feel at speed. Stay above 20 PSI if you'll be above 30 mph.
