YouTube Webinar on RV tires

The topic will have a focus on RV applications but much of the information can also apply to tires on your pick-up or even your car.


Saturday June 28 Noon to 12:45 Eastern time (9 - 9:45 Pacific)


The webinar is on the RVTravel - YouTube channel.


If you have a specific tire related question you can send the question to Chuck@RVTravel.com

Chuck is the moderator. If you cc me with your question I will have time to do some research if needed.



The Webinar will be recorded and available for viewing at a later time but you can also sign in LIVE and submit comments, ask questions or even participate in a contest or two for prizes.

Realizing it is just one man's opinion, I would really like to hear his on running the absolute minimum air pressure as listed in the tire load/inflation guides. Apparently many mh owners do just that to obtain the softest ride possible.

Only reason to run the lowest listed inflation is if you know the actual load on the Motorhome tire is less than the load listed in the chart.

If we are talking about a multi axle trailer the only reason to run less than the sidewall inflation is because they like to replace tires every 2 years.

Now maybe I could ask if those owners run the engine oil at the lowest possible level - just when it registers on the dip stick - below the "Add Oil" mark. This will save them the cost of buying more oil that the engine may need.


More details in the Webinar.
