| Description of the problem | I have a shasta airflyte reissue. The manufacture put passenger tires on it p225/75r15. They are to have 35 psi. The sticker says gvw is 3635 lbs. Each tire says max load 1874 lbs. The wheels say max load each 1820 lbs. It is my understanding that it is not safe to run passenger tires on an enclosed trailer, camper. A trailer needs tires with a stronger side wall and be able to inflate to 65 psi. I also understand that the tires and wheels should be rated at 20% more than gvw. The wheels are also offset to where the inside clearance in the wheel well is only about 1". A trailer wheel should be centered on the hub, not offset. The wheels should be able to accomadate a trailer tire and 65 psi. |
