to 32-36. Right now I have it at 24 and wobblin like a son-a-bitch!

you are wobbling not the bike. you will get used to it.
i ran low pressure on the street and chewed through tires like crazy and i could never steer a wheelie for ****. i got sick of it and went to 25 lbs and with the harder pressure it feels alot different (wobbly) but you will get used to it and learn to love it. when i get into a lot im gonna make myself learn on higher pressure too

I think your right. Im not 100% smooth on the throttle. Maybe thats causing my wobble, I chop it to try to get a little further back
