    Tire pressure measuring and inflating.

    I also answered at the winebago topic, on your basic question. There I assumed you determined your 105 psi cold with reserve. In this topic about if 105 psi is wise., but you know best how you determined the 105 psi. The 10 to 15% higher pressure as suggested, would mean, if 105 psi is lowest...

    What about when it's too hot?

    Certainly not, the tires need the higher pressure to give lesser heatproduction at same speed,because cooling down is also worse at higher ambiënt temperatures. If its apriciated, I can give text I used for other topic in other forum, about it. Was burned down there for saying that at 40 degr...

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    Dont take tmps for normal cars, they sometimes only go to 65psi, and you need system that goes up to 110 psi, and warm even more. Someone wrote about pressure/ hight relation. TMPS sensors send absolute pressure to the receving unit, wich substracts a standard 14.7 psi ambiënt outside...

    Correct Tire Pressure?

    Forget the list, its made with a formula that leads to lower pressure then the European formula, and I even use a calculation that leads to a bit higher pressure then the European. Second is that they are calculated for one loadrange and the other loadranges ( like E 80psi) the loadcapacity is...

    Correct Tire Pressure?

    With my made calculator I came to front 86psi and rear 78psi. In my calculator I first add 10% to the given axleload ( now used your GAWR's. Then I calculate with a formula that comes to higher pressure then the official used in Europe. So assumevyour GAWR's used to the max. Only weighing fully...

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    I know, but on RV often aftermarket tmps with external sensors screwed on the valves. Then temperature reading is something in between inside and outside tire temperature.

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    For temperature of the gascompound vs tirepressure I made a simple list. In that search cold pressure you fill at 70 degrF, and read the degrF/psi and remember that or write it down, for every axle . Then while driving you can calculate roughly by head what temperature the inside tire has...

    Tires: where do I even start?!

    See you are in the site team. Are you also a moderator then. By several editings, mostly for writing errors, 2 post got double. So if you can , will you remove post # 22 and #33 for me? After that you can remove up to this sentence. A little rocket science is not that bad for RV tires, on...

    Tires: where do I even start?!

    About hat last about setting pressure per the tire manufacturer's tables, I also have a remark. American pressure/loadcapacity-lists, are made with a formula that leads to higher loadcapacity then the European official formula. So leads to lower pressure, and in my spreadsheets I set the...

    Tires: where do I even start?!

    About next. •Making sure they are at correct pressure is VERY important for wear pattern and need to check before heading out each time! Even a bit to low pressure still gives even wear for radial tires, and only much to high gives centrewear ( my estimation that 65% load%). So correct...

    Tires: where do I even start?!

    Forgot about the tires. The tiremaker calculates the maxload ( here 2680lbs belonging to Load-index 115) for maxspeed of tire ( belonging to speedcode). Above 160kmph/99mph, so speedcode R ,S,T,H,V, the maxload is for 99mph calculated, and gives that on sidewall , Service descriptions its...

    Tires: where do I even start?!

    If you click on the screenshot, you get the full picture, wich you can enlarge . I myself determined by reactions about bumping, that if the pressure is calculated for a deflection belonging to 160kmph/99mph and using 90% of the loadcapacity belonging to the calculated pressure, that then...

    Tires: where do I even start?!

    Used the info you gave in several posts, and filled in in my made calculator. For GAWR'S with maximum reserve with still acceptable comfort and grip, front 67psi reardrive 80 psi. But better is to weigh per axle-end , second best axle, fully loaded as going on trip, also the persons
