Re: Need Tires - Planning Ahead for Travel Trailer Purchase
I found that Michelin tire in the “LT” category. Max 80 psi on the tire. Looks like this will cover me solid. I did some additional reading and I would want to run close to 70-75 psi on this tire when hauling a travel trailer but when we are not would I could air back down to GMC recommendation? Or maybe arbitrarily pick 55 psi? My door sticker say cold tire pressure 35psi.321Views0likes0CommentsNeed Tires - Planning Ahead for Travel Trailer Purchase
Wanted some tire recommendations for my 2014 GMC Sierra 1500, tire size is 265-70-R17, it has a max towing of 9,900. lbs. The travel trailers the wife and I have looked at we like are around between 6,000 and 7,000 lbs dry weight. The one tire I have found is the Michelin Defender LTX M/S. Can anyone confirm if these are strong enough for a trailer that size? I’m still trying to figure out load ratings on tires. This truck is just weekend use and towing, I have company truck for the week days but I would like a good highway all weather and possible grass/dirt/trail traction but not for mud. I do drive it around my property went it’s not soaked from all this **** rain we get. Apologize for my being a noob in all this but I want to ensure I have proper tires. Thanks in advance!1.8KViews0likes10Comments
