Trailer tire pressure should be set according to the weight on the 
tires. More weight the higher the pressure. Tires with too low pressure 
for the weight will build up heat and blow out. That sure isn't a good 
ride for the ponies. A blow out from an over heated tire will not give 
your ponies a good ride.
