My camper weighs 3850# Each tire is rated up to 1610# at 65 psi. There's 4 tires. Thats 6440#. Would you run 65 PSI in them or a little less?
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

I would run 65# . Less air will make the tires heat up more. It will also lead to more tire wear using a lower pressure.

you use a little less fuel if you run max pressure. watch your tires. if the center shows more tread wear than the outside run a little less. run them them very much lower they get hot and will wear faster or even come apart.

They have worn unevenly in the past at 45. 65 it is! 45 is 1/3 flat not surprised if you only got year out of them if you use it much
