What Pressure Should Travel Trailer Tires be Inflated to That Have 80 PSI Max on Sidewall
Question:
I just bought so 10 ply travel trailer tires. The cold max pressure is 80lbs. Its a two axle trailer. What pressure should I put in the tires?

Helpful Expert Reply:
With trailer tires you need to keep them inflated to the max psi rating you see on the sidewall when cold. So in your case you'd want to inflate them to 80 lbs when cold and you'd be set. Lower psi will diminish the weight capacity of the tire as well as cause heat build up. Vehicle tires will have ranges but trailer tires you have to inflate them just to the max figure and you're set.
