spacers were the best mod ever bought, would never take them off now.
Also, as I have the 27" tyres, if I take them off the tyres rub the plastics!!

7 Psi? Don't you mean 3.5? Honda recommend 3.5 psi, but you can go upto 5, wouldn't go above that though.... They grip better at lower pressure.

put the quad on a hard flat surface and then deflate the tires until the edges are about 2-6mm off the ground. thats how i do mine.

I run mine about 8.5 psi on the road, but will drop them down to about 5 psi for Wales.
I should have dropped them fown for the last Rusper, but hey, who cares!!
There's enough of us with winches / tow ropes, and we are all bound to get stuck at some point
Bring it on mother f*ckers!!!!
