Just looking for some voices of experience on this one. I have a B7100 2wd with turf tires. I am thinking of dropping the rear tire pressures down to 6psi (Bridgestones recommended min) in order to get more grip in sand, but I am worried that it might make them more likely to puncture on harder ground, like in the fields. What do you guys think ?

I lower the tire pressure when working a really rough field to keep from bouncing myself to death. Lowering the pressure should reduce the chance of getting flats I think, not increase it. But lowering the pressure too much makes it possible to spin the tire on the rim

Ive got 25 in the rear and 30 in the front. Helps the shoulders with no power steering and a FEL. You'll get less flats with higher inflation me thinks.
