Tire pressure..
I've read so many tire threads my head is spinning. I just put Goodyear G614 tires on my 39' 5 th wheel. They are a G rated tire with a load capacity of 3750 lb @ 110psi .. Should I be running at...

This is what GY Tech support told me when going from E to G tires on our Avion Platinum.
They said to always run what the RV Mfg says UNLESS you are up sizing load range.
They said to weigh each axle divide that weight by two and preferably weigh each tire. Now take the heaviest tire weight look at the tire chart that is for your tire size/load. Add 5psi to the number. The Avion NEEDED 80psi with the E tires and so did the G's so I added 5psi and ran 85psi for 5 years. The tires wore perfectly even with thousands of miles.
Tech said if you run 110psi and only 85 is need for example the tires will wear in the middle have a harsher ride and have less braking.
The reason most should run MAX PSI is because the RV makers MAX out the tires!
