July? Carova? The beach will be tore up....20 is good, but I f I am going in back, some of the dunes to cross over can be super soft, I go 17 or so. Then I can go anywhere and not worry. Long line of idiots craling at teh high tide line? **** em, I'm running up by the dunes at speed. I do 35-40mph with 17psi in the sand, no issues for a Raptor suspension. The air station at the lighthouse is your friend so air up if you need to head farther south than Food Lion.Have a 2019 with stock tires and beadlock capable wheels. Heading back to OBX where my house is 6 1/2 miles up the beach, offroad, normally in the offseason I air down to 26psi as the beach is not that torn up, the speed limit is generally 35 mph on the beach and I frequently am on and off the beach heading to stores and such. For the July trip the beach speed limit is generally 15mph, your driving in soft torn up sand but I will still be going back and forth off the beach to include on trip of 20 miles round trip at about 60mph but otherwise all street travel is circa 35 mph and short trips. Question is would you have any concerns given those parameters airing down to 20psi and leaving it at that the two weeks and airing back up when I leave? Appreciate the input as always!
A bit overkill? Perhaps, I have never been close to stuck in 20+ years of beach driving, and I personally do not want to show up on Youtube or Corolla Beach Idiots, especially in a Raptor.
