do you have the stock rim or did you have to change your rims?

I keep mine under 110 pounds. Been kind of experimenting on each trip with different pressures. The least I have set them at was 90. Some here run them at the 110 pounds though.

I run mine at 96# cold. They are on stock steel rims. I do not know what you trailer weights but mine comes in at 12,500 with a pin weight of 2,950.

I use to run mine at 105; however, I was having too much stuff bounce out of the cabinets. I lowered to 95 and the trailer is much smoother and nothing gets thrown in the floor!!! Based on the Goodyear website, for my weight vehicle, they recommended 85 but I like a little firmer tire. I think I will stay at the 95 for now.

We keep ours around 108. Never lower than 105 or higher than 110. Since we change altitudes and temperatures often when we are on the move I don't make any changes as long as we are within those parameters.

The sticker was for the original tires only, and will no long apply for the G614 tires. We keep our G614 tires at or very near 110 cold.

You should ALWAYS refer to the tire sidewall for loading and inflation data.

True that!
That is why they put the info there in the 1st place.

If you can't rely on your tire dealer for accurate information, you're buying your tires from the wrong place.

For proper tire inflation you need to know the weight of your trailer on the axles, preferably each individual tire. Using an inflation/weight chart set your pressure in all four tires according to the tire with the most weight on it. Setting the pressure to the maximum psi on the side of the tire when not needed can result in premature wear on suspension components, and damage to the trailer and it's contents.

Yup. Keep it simple-this isn't rocket science.

As stated on Goodyear's web site: 110# when you are loading tire to max load rating on sidewall. Anything less than max load the tire pressure is reduced accordingly. http://www.goodyearrvtires.com/pdfs/rv_inflation.pdf

IMHO, I have to agree with LonnieB & psomers - tire pressure is determined by the load on that tire, and both Goodyear and Tredit (Keystone supplier) agree. Running at max cold inflation rating w/light to moderate (most non-fulltimers) loads only serve to wear out the center of the tread.

Goodyear's inflation chart is (again)http://www.goodyearrvtires.com/pdfs/rv_inflation.pdf

We have a 2014 Montana which came equipped with Goodyear Marathon tires. After driving just 1,800 miles, ...we attended the MOC Western Region Rally. After hearing all of the comments regarding the Marathon's we elected to replace them with the G614's. The dealer told me to run them at 100 psi cold. We also have a Tireminder TPMS which generally shows 105 psi or so when we arrive after driving for a while. (User: MP1 and MP2)
