Trailer tires
We have a dual axle travel trailer with 13" wheels. On our last trip blew one of tires. I started doing some research and found that these are ST rated tires which I think means they are rated to 65 M...

Oh, so you believe if the Maxis ST in question is at max cold PSI their tire is rated for 99mph?
RinconVTR wrote:Many trailers are near their limits - max PSI is on the sticker because that's what's required to support the GAWR rating with the minimal tires they spec. Put a bigger tire on, or a higher load range, or run at an actual weight significantly less than the GAWR, and there's no need to run at the max pressure, which will only help shake your TT apart.
Most TT's and trailers in general have PSI recommendations of max cold. I've yet to personally see one stating less. Look at the sticker on your trailer, prove it to yourself.
