My trailer had 4, D load range tires. From advice of many friends I've up graded to E load range. Just got a set of Good Year Endurance with max PSI of 80. Previous tires and trailer sticker says PSI 65.
Should I run 65, 80 or other PSI?
Visually the Load Range E look better at 80 PSI without a slight bulge.
In goodyearrvtires.com website has several clickies for tire tech for rv of all types.
In their weighing rv website https://www.goodyearrvtires.com/weighing-your-rv.aspx Goodyear says quote'...
**Special Considerations
Unless trying to resolve poor ride quality problems with an RV trailer, it is recommended that trailer tires be inflated to the pressure indicated on the sidewall of the tire. Trailer tires experience significant lateral (side-to-side) loads due to vehicle sway from uneven roads or passing vehicles. Using the inflation pressure engraved on the sidewall will provide optimum load carrying capacity and minimize heat build-up.**
Impossible giving out a flat answer to your specific trailer tire needs as we have no idea of your trailers OEM tire size or the trailers OEM axle/wheel ratings.
