Hey NewArt - Those RE-71r's are well known to have very stifff sidewalls compared to any other 200 TW tire. As a result they like lower pressures to achieve the same temperature profile as others.

I usually ran mine around 32 psig hot. In my experience, they give up the ghost if pressure rises over 36 psig.
