How does over inflation affect wandering?
Assuming alignment is correct, how will 5-10 psi over Michellin's recommended psi based on axle weights affect wandering? I'm sure the rear overhang weighted down with cargo and fresh water and B and ...

I'd suggest trying it & find out what happens. I run 60 to 65 in the fronts and 65 - 70 in the rear, where the inflation charts suggest 55 for my weights.
If it wanders too much, it's easy to pull over and shed some PSI.
I started out running 80 all the way around, but after just a few miles, decided I didn't like riding in an old lumberwagon. 60/65 seems to be the sweet spot for the Four Winds. I didn't have any wandering problems, as the ford is always light in the frontend and had to be herded between the fencerows.
We are picking up our new Sunseeker in a little over an hour from now... so I'll have a whole new machine to learn & tinker on!
Thanks, that's the psi my chart says to use. There was 70 psi in the front and should be 60-65 or closer to 63. Will try!
And congratulations on your new Sunseeker! I have the big Brother Forester 2701DS. Yes, new learning curve and moving everything over. Took 12+ years to get our Winnebago the way we wanted it and trying to get the Forester like that in a few weeks doesn't work.
BTW- check see if your new nav radio has the Q22015 update. Some have Q4 2012. You can update them within 30 days of activation. If you have a problem send me a PM
