Excellent chart.
any tire can be run at max pressure .
But if you look @max on car tires most run lower pressure as the factory recommends.
Wife's car max is 44 psi
Yet door sticker says 32 psi.
Again
Thanks for all of your responses
Cheers & Happy Camping

Your trailer has an inflation sticker as well. Here's what I don't understand though, if you are only going to inflate the trailer tires to that chart (which is a minimum recommendation) then why go up one rating? It's the air in the tire that supports the weight so if you run the air pressure at the lower rating you've gained nothing in capacity or reserve.
Passenger car tires are inflated to minimum weight capacity to "soften the ride". I'll guarantee your wife's car tires are supporting much less than 1,000 lbs/tire. It's your decision do as you wish.
