How to Determine Max Tire Inflation and How to Monitor Air Pressure and Temperature
Question:
what is the recomended tire presure ST205/75R14
asked by: Mike
Expert Reply:
The recommended tire pressure isn't standard for a tire size and will depend on the load range and ply rating among other things. The tire's recommended pressure will be printed on the sidewall, but a tire like the Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E # AM10295 has a pressure recommendation of 95psi when being filled at ambient air temperatures.
You will want to look at the info printed in raised type on the side of your tires to determine the specific recommended inflation for your tires. In order to make sure that your tires are always at the correct pressure you may want to consider investing in a tire pressure monitoring system like theTireMinder Smart TPMS for RVs - Signal Booster - 4 Tire Sensors - TPMS-APP-4. This kit will help not only monitor the air pressure but also changes in temperature and provide you with alerts when your tires are running hot-which is the most common cause of tire related failures.
