Right off the GY site - 
"Correct tire inflation is a key component in tire care. The recommended maximum inflation pressures for your tires are indicated on the certification label or in your owner's manual. Since RVs can be loaded with many different configurations, the load on each tire will vary. For this reason, actual air pressure required should be determined based on the load on each individual tire. Inflation pressure should be adjusted to handle the tire carrying the heaviest load, and all tires on the axle should be adjusted to this standard."
Goodyear RV Tire Link
Of course it says that but please state what they say when up sizing load range???????
Not arguing, I just posted the link is all... The folks who run at max no matter what can research that if they want..I know my individual wheel weights and had aired my tires accordingly
Thank you!
In general many don't understand the concept of the load/inflation charts and how and when to use them.  By running inflation chart numbers based on my load I would get 100K on 3rd gen take off BRG's and 120K Michelin's on my 98 RAM 4x4 Diesel 2500.  Same with my 98 2wd.
Many people think they get good mileage when they get 30-40K out of a set of SRW truck tires.
It depends on the use more than the pressure.  I got about 40K from tires on my F350s...because they saw the brutal duty of snowplowing.  That means lots of tight maneuvering, while loaded right to the maximum axle weights. (The rear tires ran at 80psi and 100% rated capacity.)
