Recommended Tire Pressure for ST225/75-15 Trailer Tires

asked by: Rick
Expert Reply:
Trailer tires should be kept inflated to the maximum pressure listed on the tire sidewall, as opposed to passenger vehicle tires that will have a certain acceptable range. If a trailer tire is inflated to a lower air pressure than the recommended maximum, the amount of weight that the tire can carry will be lowered. If a heavier load is put on the trailer tire than what is recommended for that air pressure, the sidewall of the tire could heat up and cause the tire to fail.
I'll link you to our trailer tire FAQ article that has additional information about trailer tires.
