Ok guys... I’m old, Polish and a retired Marine, so please use small words...
  • I haven’t weighed my RV yet.
  • The sticker says 100 PSI for front and rear. We inflated them to 100 PSI in Texas when we started the trip.
  • They didn’t feel hot through the trip when we touched them.
  • The next morning they were all at ~90 PSI. But it was much cooler (30-40s). My brother suggested that this was normal due to the colder ambient temps.
  • We got home (WV) without issue. Checking the feel of the tires with our hands.

Now my question. Since it’s in the low 30s now, should I inflate to 100PSI before I take the RV out for a spin? If I understand the above posts correctly, the PSI will go up when the tires get warm from use. And we’re planning to drive from WV (cold!) to FL (warmer) for Christmas.
