tire pressure - again

The most common CAUSE of blowouts is under inflated tires.

If you're looking for someone to agree with you to run your rig in an unsafe condition, you're not going to get it here, at least not from me. While you may never four corner your rig, (I assume you're too cheap) at least weigh it on a CAT scale and know your axle weights.

I'm wondering though, you say, "The sticker inside says to run them at 83 psi." What sticker are your referring to? I've never seen a sticker that says to run tire pressure at an oddball number.

The lower PSI on your tires will certainly soften the ride. Why not run them all at 20PSI..:h

Good luck to you, if you choose to run your tires as you've described, please make sure your insurance is up to date....just sayin....Dennis

I agree with this post! Under inflated tires, (low tire pressure) causes heat build up inside the tire and that is not good. My Michelin and Winnebago manuals both said to run my tire at 85 lbs. psi rear and 90 lbs. psi front! Didn't work for me, tire squirm! I now run 100 lbs. psi all around. My ride is a little rougher at 100 but my tire wear is excellent. My first set of tires lasted 10 years running 100 lbs. all around, and I'm currently on my second set of tires. I weighed my coach one time (WSP Truck Scales, Federal Way, Washington State) when my coach was brand new, fuel of fuel, propane, water, and all my stuff and my coach was 500 lbs. overweight! I've never weighed my coach again, and it's been over 10 years. IMHO, experiment with different tire pressures each time you go out RVing, record the tire pressure and how the coach was responding to the different amounts of air thats what I did it took a little time but my coach is now dialed in! Good Luck with your tire pressures.
