My coach has been weighed and according to the tire manufacturer's PSI chart, I should be carrying 80 psi. But, when you (or I) have new tires installed, the tire company insists on pressuring up to the psi identified on the sidewall. Why is that? Do they consider it a liability issue if they put in a lesser amount of pressure as requested by the buyer? It's not a problem since, when I arrive home, I can then adjust the psi to whatever I want. But, just wondering why the dealer won't agree to a psi less than the sidewall amount. Any thoughts?
Whatever the case, if my chart called for 80psi, I'd be running at least 90psi for taking care of the many variables and especially with leaving on an extended trip from a warmer climate.
