Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes you should run 90 psi in your tow dolly tires. For ST trailer tires like the ST145R12 that you have you need to make sure that you always run them at their max PSI rating to ensure you get the full weight capacity, speed rating, and prevent heat build up which leads to premature failure.
