The following 5 steps will go through how to read your tires so that you can choose the best ones for your RV:
1. ST Tire Code
RV tow-able trailers have special tires designated for them. They are called Special Trailer (ST) tires and will have an ST on the tirecode which is located on the sidewall, near a series of other numbers. ST tires are constructed with RV trailers in mind. The sidewalls are much more rigid than regular tires and they are great for your trailer when cornering and backing up. Always look for the ST code for your RV.
2. Load Range
Fully load your RV trailer and weigh it. If you cannot fully load your RV unit and weigh it, use the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of your trailer, found on the weight specifications sticker. It is important to fully load your vehicle, the maximum weight that it will be travelling at when you take it out. This will help us determine the weight capacity that each tire must handle, which will help us pick the right one.
3. Determining Load Range
With simple maths we can figure out the load range for each tire. Take the total weight of your trailer and divide by the number of tires that will support your trailer (dual tire configurations will count as 1 tire). Another way to think about this is to count the axles rather than the tires. 1 axle will divide the total weight by 2 and 2 axles will divide the total weight by 4. For example, you have a 4 tire 2 axle configuration for your trailer. Your total weight of the RV is 8000lbs. 8000/4 = 2000. 2000lbs is the load range you require for each tire.
4. Consulting Tire Load Charts
Look up a tire load chart to see which size tire and inflation pressure you will require. You can find one at the Goodyear RV website.
5. Tire Dates
Now that you know which tire to choose, head to the tire store and select the right tires for your RV trailer. When looking at the tires, you are choosing tires that have been manufactured a few months ago, so that you are choosing the best and newest tires available. To do this, look at the 4 digit number that follows the DOT code letters i.e. “DOT PDHH MLOR 3403″. The first 2 numbers of the date code represent the week that it was made. The last two numbers represent the year. So in our example, the tire was made on the 34th week of 2003. Always pick the newest tires available.
These are the steps for choosing and reading RV trailer tires. You can find more information about RV trailer tires below.
