I'm starting to get the motorhome ready for the upcoming camping season. Does anyone have any recommendations for tire pressure for the front and rear tires?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Mike

Not to sound brunt but...the tire pressures should be whatever the tire builder recommends for the size tire and how much weight it is supporting. If your guessing go with between 80# and 120#. I run 95# on the front and 85 on the rear but I know what it weighs both front and rear.

Bottom line, get each axle weighed independently, look at the charts each tire manufacturer publishes and you will know their pressure recomendation.

We have an 06 Discovery 39V and the Accuride rims have stamped on them that max air pressure of 120 psi cold, I believe. I usually have mine at about 110 cold.

If you're sure you're not running overweight on any tires and are running GY 670 275/70 tires 105 front and 95 rear gives me a decent ride and good handling, but you really should weight all four corners and use the GY chart.
