    I do not run as wide of a tire as you have, I run 9" wide but I always run 10.5-12lbs depending on track conditions.
    If you have raced this tire size in another brand I would try where you left off and see how the car handles and how traction feels. If you go with too low of tire pressure the car won't be as stable.
    If this tire size is a first for you start a little higher 9-10lbs and drop it till you are comfortable with traction and handling.
    If your tire happens to be a radial then much higher tire pressure is reccomended.

    I have tried all brands over the years and I am very happy and most impressed with Hoosiers
