An RV is loaded all the time, keep that in mind. On the sidewall of every tire is a "Loaded max psi cold" number. Better wear and less blow outs if you follow the tire sidewall number and air them to max psi cold. 'Cold' basically mean sitting and not rolling for several hours.
The sidewall of the tire is where you need to get your information.

Yeaaaaaaaaah, NO. We are not driving trucks here for hundreds of thousands of miles and rarely need to worry about wearing out MH tires before they age out. You COULD air your tires up to max cold pressure if you wanted your MH to ride like a Flintstonemobile on rock tires.
There's a reason the vehicle manufacturer has to put the tire inflation values on all motor vehicles and a reason tire manufacturers have inflation vs load charts for their tires.
What may have worked for you in your occupation doesn't really apply to motorhomes.
