I'm in the late stages of commissioning a new SES Road Crash Rescue truck for Moreton Island. The vehicle is based on a 6.5 tonne GVM Isuzu NPS 4WD. It is fitted with ATW Super Singles with Toyo tyres. I expect the operational weight with crew will be around 6 tonnes.
The vehicle will be driven on the sand tracks and beaches of the island with a short stretch of bitumen at the start and finish of each mission. Tyres will obviously be inflated to road pressure for trips to the mainland.
I am in the process of writing an operators manual. I would like to ask the many beach drivers and expeditioners on the forum what their recommended tyre pressures would be and how low can you safely take them without losing the bead?
Thanks for your advice.
cheers
