How to Find Tire Pressure to Run in Trailer Tires
Question:
Where do I find the max psi for my tires? the sticker only references cold tire psi at 80. I just learned how to setup the tire pressure monitor that came with my purchase and the sensors already installed in the valve stem. its a 2020 Rockwood Signature Ultra Lite 8332SB. We have owned it. since March and have traveled once in it and the second trip is soon.. Also they are nitro filled so do I put air in them? Help... husband knows nothing, and its essentially my camper so Im the do it and learn it all person.

Expert Reply:
On the sidewall of the tire there will be a max psi listed for your trailers. This is the PSI to inflate to when the tires are cold and you'll be set. They may fluctuate a bit higher as they heat but as long as they are inflated to the max psi when cold that fluctuation is totally normal. It sounds like your psi rating is 80 psi so most likely that's what you'll need.
