So what do I do if the load inflation table does not have the weights for my tire size included on their table. My tire size is there but my load is not. The first closest number is 800lbs higher...Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18013462725909808201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4197373783392349499.post-48212856435732659292016-04-29T13:51:22.631-07:002016-04-29T13:51:22.631-07:0035 sounds very low.

Are you sure you are reading the Michelin tables correctly? <br />I assume you have a 10,000 GAWR rear axle so if you have LT235/85R16 LR-E tires with 2,500# per tire your minimum inflation should be at least 70 psi and that is assuming perfect side to side loading. What is your actual rear axle load with the camper and truck fully loaded?Tireman9https://www.blogger.com/profile/09813984937064446653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4197373783392349499.post-67374093794717823822016-04-23T09:31:03.933-07:002016-04-23T09:31:03.933-07:00Great info, thanks.

Given my axle weights, Michelin tables indicate really low minimum CIP for the rears (35 psi), whereas I've been running 65 psi per the placard. Should I really consider running at about 40 psi? Kinda scary. Thanks!BoinLVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02699645805393104498noreply@blogger.com
