17-20 psi on the nose and tightening the scissor bolts should get you less
or no shimmy.

Subject: [COUPERS-TECH] Correct tire inflations
----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any
advice in this forum.]----
Hello all,
My wife Carole and I are proud owners of Ercoupe N415CB, (formerly
N87337),
which we bought last April. It's a 1946 415C, serial number 510.
My question is this; Can someone tell me the correct tire inflations? I
have
found conflicting information in several Ercoupe manuals. The nose wheel
is
5.00 x 5, and the mains are 6.00 x 6.
I have a fairly severe shimmy at landing speeds, which stops at about 40
mph
or so. There seems to be no shimmy on takeoff. I'm thinking that
incorrect
nose wheel inflation could be the culprit.
