Found this chart showing traction improvement at different tire pressures. I didn’t check the math but the percentage improvement is impressive.

I've seen something like that before. Pretty cool to see. Someone did something similar by actually driving on dust or chalk and then photographing each pressure. Results were similar.

Nice!

Too bad they didn't show it at 12, 10, and 8, or even lower.

That is pretty cool to see how much less pressure is applied to the ground at 15 psi.

I agree it would be better to see from 25 down to 5.
