2019 coleman 264RL tire pressure?
The placard on the side is weathered and I can't read the psi. It's not in the manual either. Anyone know the correct psi for coleman 264RL? I read I shouldn't go by what is on the tire. Tires are cur...

When’s the last time either of you (jabatis or mowermech) did a chalk test on a trailer tire, or any tire for that fact?
It’s not just that you’re posting confusing and potentially dangerous information, especially when it comes to trailer tires, but by design, the (largest contact patch theory) is largely inapplicable when it comes to trailer tires…and many other tire/rim/vehicle combinations.
And even if tire chalk test wasn’t fraught with other considerations that can/will cause many chalk tests to be invalid, it takes far more time and is far more subjective than just knowing a decent approximate weight and using an inflation chart.
You both are trying real hard to find a solution to a problem that doesn’t really exist.
And worth mentioning a second time….wholly the wrong approach for trailer tires in particular.
@ huntindog, you’re correct, weights could vary side to side and likely may. If they vary front to back on a side by much at all, though, it’s likely a towing setup issue. Nose up or down on torsion axles. That said, virtually no one has or uses tire scales (except racers) and it’s equally as impractical an approach as chalking albeit for different reasons.
