Confusing business this. My caravan was delivered new with tyre pressures set at 2.4 bar, the caravan manual recommended that with the size and type of wheels fitted a pressure of 3.0 bar be used, but the tyres have a maximum permitted pressure of 40psi stamped on them. So I have settled on using 2.7 bar or 39.16 psi.

Thats a fair drop, considering the makers say different. Id get this clarified before it ends up on its side due to wrong tyre pressures. I had a pair of tyres fit to my 'van. They went up to 60psi. Shame i needed 80 in them!
