Correct Tire Pressure on Tow Vehicle
Greetings All,
I am looking for guidance on the proper tire pressure for our truck when pulling a 2007 Safari SS SE. (The trailer has a GWVR of 7,300 lbs and I inflate its tires to 65 lbs.)
The weight of the truck (an '07 F150 5.4 L) is about 6,700 lbs including truck, passengers, cargo, and weight on the hitch. The maximum allowable pressure shown on the walls of the truck's P235/70R17 BF Goodrich tires is 50 lbs. So the question is, what is the proper tire pressure to get the best safety, handling, and tire longevity. Appreciate any insight!
Jim
