Keep in mind that the trailor tires will get hot during transit so they probably exceeded the 80 lbs if you put 80 lbs into them to start with.

Great job on the track btw!!

80 psi. Holy crap batman. That must have a had a eventful blowout. Did it damage the trailer fender?

80#'s is the COLD max tire pressure rating....

Thanks for the kudos -- I sure had fun!

Ummmmmm..... it got my attention.... like a cannon going off! And I'm an internationally licensed pyro --- so I've heard my fair share of explosions!

This thread is worthless without pictures......

Just for clarity of the situation --- those tires have MANY MANY long distance trips -- as in Scottsdale and back to Seattle several times -- LA and back several times - So it isn't the air pressure that "suddenly" blew the tread off TWO tires on the same trip.... my guess it DELAMINATING.... since both tires suffered the exact "tread loss"....Neither tire blew out the sidewall....

Just FYI -- Load range "E" tires are 80# cold max pressure --- you can have the same size tire with a lower load range rating and it will have a lower max pressure.

Yep - Thanks Jody. As usual in any thread I post in - it gets jacked...

All the threads - to me - are just like a bunch of guys hanging out in "the shed" - the conversations wind around just like a race track... I've shown that staying on track is difficult for me! HA!
