RE: [RC] Truck/trailer tire ? - Steph TeeterHowever, if it's very hot the tires will over-inflate from the heat of the pavement. I had blowout a month ago - temps were 100+ degrees, our 'normally' inflated tires were like balloons. I was told to let all the tires out by 10-15 psi when it's that hot. Steph My truck tires say they should be inflated to 80 lbs, the trailer's to 60. Yet my hubby, who is wonderful but doesn't know anything about autos or fixing ANYTHING, says that I should not inflate the tires that high. That They should be inflated to the manufacturer's specs. If they are underinflated, as yours have been, the sidewalls will flex too much, will overheat, and will do exactly as you describe. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= http://www.endurance.net/ads/seabiscuit.html Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
