Default Re: Trailer Tires Part 2

Please remember that any tire presure over 60lbs when inflating a tire can kill you when the tire explode, one of the reasons that professional tire installer use a cage to protect themselves when inflating tires. I own a BlueBird Wanderlodge which tips the scale at just under 36.000lbs all tires are inflated by my local Goodyear tire company, usually when the tire technician inflates my tires he locks the air nozzle and walk away from the tire his inflating(I also follow his lead) Joe, follow Mr Teuton's advise, he know's a thing or two about mileage. I attented a Goodyear seminar for people driving an Rv with trailer or a truck and we were told to stop every two hours to let the tire cool down, gives the tire rubber and oil to cool down. I followed that rule and never had a flat in six year hauling an open wheel trailer with car and before that probably four blow out each year.Claude
