HOW TO READ A TYRE


The tyre above has a load rating of 82 which equals 475 kg’s per tyre from the table below.
The ratings in this table are per tyre. Multiply the tyre rating by the number of tyres on your axle for the total allowable weight per axle. This must exceed the vehicle’s rated axle weight given on the Step 1 or 2 plate.

Below is a link to a ‘Rule of thumb’ tyre pressure calculator using actual axle weights, ie you will need to know your axle weights by weighing them at a weighbridge fully loaded. https://loadsafe.nz/motorhome-tyre-pressures-2/
