I've weighed and according to the Goodyear chart I should run 80 psi in all tires. The MH handles very good at 80 but the tires increase in pressure as they heat up and it's not uncommon for them to pick up 15 psi. At that increased pressure (95)handling become less than comfortable. Question: Knowing that the tires will increase in pressure rather fast, would I be taking a chance by inflating cold to say something less than that required by weight...say 75 rather than the 80 knowing that pressure would be up to the required 80 psi and beyond within only a very few miles.
No, you should not, under any conditions, lower the pressure below the indicated minimum. Remember, that chart shows the minimum required psi to carry that weight. You might be better served to increase the cold psi 5 pounds or so. You might get less heat and pressure rise.
