Air pressure with the tire off
Hi, I always check and fill the rear dually tires while they are off the rv. I want 95 psi or 100 for extra safety and varying load. Front are 110 and done easily. i do not have valve extens...

Thanks for the replies.
I check the pressures once a year, before a longer trip. I will do it this evening. it allows me to check the disk and brakes pads at the same time.
From year to year, I can say that it does not change much. i have to add air every 2 years
I am thinking about extenders, maybe next year. I am getting older
You should be checking your tire pressure every few days when on the road and before every trip. I usually never have to add air either. But one time while camping at Vegas and getting ready to hit the road for the 500 mile drive home, I checked the tire pressure and found one of my inside dual tires with 30 psi. Only way I found that was by checking the pressure, the other tire was holding the weight up and you couldn't tell the inside was low. Put air in the tire and took it to a nearby tire shop and there was a nail in the tire. Had I not checked the pressure I would have driven 500 miles like that. Or more likely, I would have drive 100 miles like that then had a blow out in the middle of the Mojave desert.
Truck drivers check their tires every day.
