One of my fellow campers stopped by and ask me about tire pressure and thinks his is (maybe) losing some air
from sitting for a couple of months - he's a Snowbird too.
I went over and looked at it and he is concerned that the top edge of the tire is moving away from the edge of the rim.
I used my tire gauge and the tire (rear ones) were 73 and 74. The 74 reading was from the tire in the photos below - the 73 reading tire was an inside rear tire on the opposite side of the coach. The tires have a max of 120 psi stamped in them. Found the placard in the coach
and it stated 80 psi so they are a little low.
Do you all think it's moving away from the edge? IF SO is it common or a concern?
Were they not seated well enough when put on?
On the side photographed there is no hose for the inside tire to measure or adjust air pressure like there is on the other side.
The date code was not visible on the tire I photographed but he lead me to believe that they were fairly new - but I didn't ask
exactly how old they were. He said they were changed when he bought the coach. So I think a year or 2 at most.
