Ok. Tire markings say max loads are 3305 used as a dual, 3525 as a single at 110 PSI. So I have a lot of headroom there. Tire type is 124\122M 12PR\LRF which seems to mean it can be used as either a truck or trailer tire.
I think I'll inflate them to the axle max, not the 110 PSI. 110 PSI seems like overkill. So I'd be inflating to 2000 lbs in the front (4000÷ 2) and 1600 in the back (6400÷4). That is until I can get it properly weighed.
I would go with axle weight and then add another 5-10 pounds just to allow for any leakage until you get the coach weighed. Remember to get it weighed with full fuel, all normal passengers, and as much fresh and waste water that you plan to carry when loaded for a long trip, in addition to food, clothing, tools, etc.
