I don't understand the concern about damage. Goodyear's tire pressure chart says for the GYM's that are OEM, at 40psi these tires (4) have a load capacity of 7,520 pounds. At 45psi their capacity increases to 8,080 pounds.

So why inflate to 65psi? Why not run at 40-45psi if the trailer weighs, say, 6,500 pounds?
