A pleasant journey can turn into hell if a blowout occurs. Check the recommended maximum inflation pressures for your tyres in the owner’s manual. Since motorhomes come in varying sizes and configurations, the load on each tyre will be different as well.
Correct inflation is a key component in tyre care. The recommended maximum inflation pressures for your tyres are indicated on the certification label or in your owner's manual. Since motorhomes can be loaded with many different configurations, the load on each tyre will vary. For this reason, actual air pressure required should be determined based on the load on each individual tyre. Inflation pressure should be adjusted to handle the tyre carrying the heaviest load, and all tyres on the axle should be adjusted to this standard.
Each manufacturer provides load and inflation tables specific to their products to help you determine the correct tyre inflation pressure for your vehicle's loading.
Underinflation brings a higher risk of susceptibility to damage due to road hazards, reduces casing durability, and causes a loss in fuel economy, plus uneven or irregular tyre wear. Severe or prolonged underinflation brings about an increased risk of tread separation and blowouts.
Prevent this easily with a SmarTTyres Tyre Pressure Monitoring System. Installing this allows you to easily monitor your tyre pressure and temperature. It can also be personalised to your specific vehicle, with programmable functions for your preferred air pressure. The notification system will alert you to any changes in the pressure in real time, allowing you to take steps to prevent any possible issues.
