Default BFG Drag Radial Use

Anyone used or using BFG g-force T/A Drag Radials? What tire pressure do you use at the drag strip? I ask because Tire Rack told me the tires would fit my OEM wheels but that the lowest pressure for the "street" would be 35 psi based on min. load - they're going to get back with me but recommended I hit the forums. Thanks

I run 315/30/18 BFG G-Force drag radials full time on my car. I usually run them at 20psi at the track and 25psi on the streets arond town and if I drive somewhere 1hr+ away I'll air them up to 30psi.

My drag strip is not the stickiest track around (Sacramento Raceway) so 20psi is kinda high but I run them that high in hopes of saving my rear. If I wanted to dead hook I would air them down to 16psi at the track.
