My first question, and I hope I’m in the right place?

My question here appears to have swerved off course. I originally ask about air pressures, but since then I’ve been snooping around this and other sites and came to my own experimental conclusions.

Front tire is an H50 so 35lbs. (for larger footprint)

Rear tires are now 25lbs. (for softer ride)

Rear air bags are 35lbs. (for two up)

Seem fair?

Most ride with 38 - 40lbs for front tire. I use 40lbs in my front tire cold.

You can go as low as 22lbs in the rear for a soft ride. The tires are not supporting nearly the weight the tires were design for. At lot least weight on a trike, that is why you can go to a lower tire pressure.
 
On my 2008 Gold Wing Motor Trike Adventure kit I started the front tire, cold, at 37-38psi. Rears were started, cold, at 24. I was a solo rider.
