Spare tire pressure
The four tires on my travel trailer specify 80 pounds each tire the spare tire only is rated for 65 pounds is this correct?

Off topic, but kind of related; Spare tire on TV. Most people at least look at tires on the ground every day but often do not check the spare. I always air my spare up to max sidewall on the theory it is more likely to have enough when I need it. Yes, I have a compressor, can air up spare. But it is quicker to reduce pressure and over inflated is safer than under inflated.

My trailer and TV have TPMS. I added a TPMS sensor on the trailer spare and the TV spare.
As mentioned it is easy to overlook the spare tire. This way I will be warned if either spare is low on pressure.
