I realize I am not the sharpest tack in the box, but i am having trouble understanding the chart. I have a 29' with 3 slides and have LT225/75R16 tires. My weight is 3900 lbs in the front and 9700 in the rear. I am about 200 lbs over on the rear and light in the front. Looking at the chart, for 80 lbs, I read it to have a max of 2680 lbs for singles and 4940 lbs for dually's. Both of these readings are far lower than I have. How am I reading this wrong?
To put into numbers, what others have stated, that 2,680# for a single is per side, so the front tires with 80# psi is 5,360# per axle. The rear axle 4,940# for duals is also per side, which means 9,880# per axle.
Are those numbers from when fully loaded with fuel, passengers and gear/supplies?
