I don't have many runs on mine so far. 2750lbs 9.30s and 9.90s in high gear. I'm up to 9psi I plan to try to get them into 10-11 range next season.

I recently switched from MT3074S that weren’t available, to Hoosier 18235 on 14” wide bead locks in mid July. I’m using the same 9.5# pressure as the MT in a 2850# 700hp sbc launching 3700. Have 90 runs on them now. I don’t double.

I’d suggest 12 psi as a good starting point. Keep your burnouts short.

These guys who have similar weight cars with same tire is good information and good starting point. Be aware that many good tire gages will read quite different. So you may not be comparing apples to apples here and your car may hit tire different and need different pressures but should get you in ballpark.
Also good video of the car will help you determine if you need more or less air.

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.
