This is a topic that will get answers from one extreme to the other. I've read in numerous places where they reccommend inflating to the max as listed on the side wall. I'm running 100 psi, don't think I would want to go much less because of the twisting/torqueing of the tires in sharp turns. You still have to have enough pressure to keep the tires on the rims. Back when Radial tires first came out, auto mfrs were running the pressure in the mid 20s to give that soft ride, but during hard cornering the tread would stick to the road and roll the bead right off the rim. I know the P rated car tires are of different construction, but you still have to maintain enough pressure to keep those trailer tires on the rims during those 90 degree turns backing into a tight spot. Just my nickel's worth
