Maybe I am missing something in all this discussion? There is an inflation chart on my truck as well and my Mountaineer. Why would I not go by those chart? I have maintained that pressure on my truck and with 61K miles I am still running them with plenty of tread left. Any more or less pressure the truck does not ride or drive like it does with the correct pressure. I see no reason to question the camper pressure so I keep that pressure, check before each trip. Now I did have steam problems with two tires so replaced all 5 steams after two problems. Latter saw Keystone recall on stems for my model year. Didn’t take a genius to figure out there was a problem.
As they say, just my two cents worth.

Guys,
I've been using the G614's on my SOB, only because they are the original equipment. I've use the 110# and 100# presures and have not seen any wear patterns with 12k+ miles. The problem that I have is that the tire age is what will make me replace them and not the wear. My rig is 2003, and the rig sat for two years before I purchased it used, making the tires 5 years old. The GVWR of the trailer is 14995, so don't feel that I've overloaded them. Just my .02 worth.

Just remember that tires rot from the inside out from UV rays. Least that what I have been informed of so you may not visibly see anything on the outside until to late.
