West Lake Tires......a Chinese Brand, doesn't have a Tire Load Chart
With those West Lakes 4080# at 110psi I would run at least 100#
I have Goodyear G614s..run them at 110psi and keep them inflated using my Viair 400P 12V DC air compressor
With the high air pressure required you need to invest in a GOOD portable 150psi compressor.
Thanks. I am looking into a portable a/c, but they are really heavy. What power do you use for your DC inflator? Do you plug into the truck/s DC system, or go directly to the truck battery?
I use the alligator clips on the Viair compressor and clamp onto one of the trucks batteries or onto one of the 5th wheels batteries.
Although I checked 5vr tires every travel day (early AM prior to travel and usually every week) I rarely need to add very much air pressure.
Trucks rear tires.....had to pump them up every travel day as I would decrease air pressure down to 45# when not towing (during week or 2 weeks we would be parked) and then pump them back up to 80# for towing.
Viair compressor is 10 yrs old and I use it here at S&B House more then my 120V AC Compressor as it is very handy/light weight and just needs a good battery to clamp onto.
