Setting tire pressure before hitting the road
Getting ready to hit the road and want to set tire pressure on truck and trailer. Max load pressure on 5th wheel is 110 lb. I set tire pressure cold but should it be set first thing in morning or late...

^^^^^^^^^^Be careful, it looks like you're complicating the uncomplicated.
There's a right way, a wrong way, and a 'good-enough-to-get-by' way.
Setting all your tires to maximum pressure is simple, straightforward, and probably not SERIOUSLY dangerous. Just not optimum.
Using the tire manufacturer's load/inflation chart really ain't hard, and people doing this stuff really SHOULD know their vehicle and axle weights, instead of just guessing them, anyway.
