Tire pressure
Tires inflated to the maximum pressure stated on side wall , how much will that pressure increase from the heat of the road ? for you folks that have tire monitors , Thanks

Jadatis, you are really in there when it comes to the scientific end.
So with all that being said, are you indicating that I am toying around with the so called "critical mass" here.
I was planning to run those tires up to the 5 year mark and then go the LT replacement route.
Depends if you had tire-failures whit this 5th wheeler in the past.
Id you have it long time, with no tire-problems, these temperatures are probably allowed and it is because of the more deflection of a ST tire.
But I you had problems I would try the 90 psi.
And if your tires are pretty new with low milage on them , nothing stands in the way of putting 90 psi in, so its a free try.
But for this I need tire maximum load and pressure given for that on sidewall. From 5th wheeler the GAWR's and configuration( number of axles and tires) . If you have ever weighed , the axle or beter seperate wheel(pair) weights are also handy .
I suspect the 92 psi tire warm has the highest load on it.
