Are Our Tires REALLY that sensitive?
I know I will roust the ire of many a tire aficionado, as well as those who will claim expert knowledge from years of traveling and RV'ing and quasi-engineering or actual engineering status/certificat...

I weighed my rig once loaded up how it will travel. Inflated tires 5lbs over what inflation chart says for my weights. Check them every time before we leave. Have a tire pressure monitor system of some sort. At home when we park we park on rubber mud flaps.we don't cover our tires but is most likely a good idea.
Never understood the 5-10 PSi over the chart thing I see on here all the time. Why? If the chart says at x weight adjust to Y PSI, why would you go over? 10 miles down the road once they heat up now you are way outside the parameters specifically outlined in the chart. I don't get it. Over inflated tires can be just as bad as underinflated. Why wouldn't you go by the chart?
