I got new tires one month ago and went in with 70 lbs in all six. Tire shop said to leave them at 70. A 200k rig sitting next to me came in for new tires and the tire guy said the owner runs at 90 lbs but it rides like a rock. I wish someone had a typical tire chart that stated the average pressure to run. I for one will probably never have the chance to weigh my MH

1,200 certified three-pad scales nationwide by just one company:
CAT Scale Locator.
With those readings one can consult the tire manufacturer for best pressure against load. Neither too high nor too low. A scale is the only way to be accurate. While axle position by axle position may be best, the industry uses an average
across the axle in it's calculations.
And, an accurate gauge. This company rates highly:
PCL Ordinary gauges can be off considerably (10% or more).
When ready to buy I would also start with the tire manufacturer for vehicle-specific tire recommendations, versus a dealer trying to move inventory.
Centramatic or BalanceMaster would be next on my list.
