Default Re: tire pressure

You probably already know this but I will say it any way, make sure to adjust the tire pressure with the tires cold, that is they have not been used lately.

Running at max pressure is OK but if you dont meet or come close to the max weight you might find the center of the treads wearing faster than the outside.

If you run the pressure a little less then max it will give you a little extra cushion with the suspension. Try it different ways and see what works best for your set up, but never exceed the max rated pressure.

I am sure some one will dissagree with me but I have pulled a travel trailer up and down the east coast for several years and have had good luck with the fore mentioned advice.
