hi, we have recently purchased a 2000 coachman pastiche 460/2, its a 2002 model and is in vgc.

i was looking for info possibly from someone with the same caravan or similar re tyre pressure, the handbook states refer to pressure shown ion the tyre, the tyre states 60psi.

i realise that this is the max and when cold. but i read somewhere that the pressure should be 42 psi.

i cant find any info on the coachman site for older vans.

the current model handbook states 65 psi but that van is approx 80kg heavier based on the max laden weight.
i was going to try it at 55psi

Are the tyres that are fitted commercial tyres as these are designed to carry the extra load on a single axle also what size tyres are fitted? The official tyre sizes for my Coachman Amara 450 are 175 x 14 and advises 50 psi. in the handbook. The tyre wall states maximum pressure of 54 psi. so I normally aim for the central figure of 52 psi. when fully loaded. The Pastiche is heavier than the Amara so I would have thought that 55 psi. would be acceptable (just as a guide) until you know what the official tyre pressures are.
