Expert Reply:
With trailer tires like the part # AM10002 you always need to inflate them to the max pressure rating that's on the side of the tire when they are cold. So in this case you'd want to go with 60 psi. This ensures that you get the full weight capacity of the tire as well as prevent heat build up.
