Proper PSI For Trailer Tires?
I'm curious as to what you consider the correct psi, to put into your trailer tires? I have a toy hauler, 28' twin axle. Fully loaded i'm 15 - 16K lbs. The max rating on the tires, is stated at 80psi....

PSI is cold pressure, if it calls for 80 PSI, put 80 PSI in when cold. 75 PSI would be underinflated. The given pressures already take into account any pressure increase from heat.
This ^^^^^. I personally run max or even max +10. In 40 years I had one blow out.
Ditto, with the comment this is what I do for my TRAILER. TV and cars trucks etc. run what the mfg recomends.
In fact many of the trailer tire mfg. state the tires are designed to be run at max inflation pressure regardless of load.
And I do that even though the load capacity at max pressure is much higher than the actual load. and the tires still wear very evenly.
