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?

The tires on the ground are likely Load Range E which has a max inflation pressure of 80 psi. The Spare is a Load Range D which has a max inflation pressure of 65 psi.
Somewhere along the line the tires on the ground have been upgraded from the OE tires but spare was not.
I would NOT inflate the spare to 80 psi if you ever have to use it.
I would check the sticker on the side of your trailer (usually on the left side,
front corner) and see what tires were OE and the pressure specified. If it specifies 80 psi I'd replace the spare with a Load Range E so if you DO have to use it, you won't be running on an under-rated tire.
