Re: Messing around after a Pismo trip
I only aired down to 25psi. What tires do you recommend? On the Dakota I was using Xterrains. They seemed to kick a$$. Should I stick with them? I was in 4 Hi lock and usually shifting between 2nd and 1st.

Probably not low enough. They say the last 5 or so psi makes a big difference. I did better on stock tires at reg psi than I did my monster 325 Terra Grapplers at reg psi. Next time I will air down for sure.

Yeah, probably too high. I was down to 15 PSI and still had some trouble in a couple areas. Would just lose traction on a flat area and start digging in. 
The folks with mudders seemed to fair better. Kind of a paddle effect in the soft sand. Getting a wider tire will also help.

Re: Messing around after a Pismo trip
I was thinking maybe running Bogers. Or maybe even getting a set of padle tires for the sand. Who knows..
