Maybe a spam bot will show up and try to sell us purses, that include air pressure gauges. This thread is remarkably accurate. More accurate than any gauge. :thankyouthankyou:

Wow, I did the same thing, I almost always have one tire off by a whole psi but guys, I only tow it a few miles to the ramp, a couple times a year, I avoid traffic, maintain a safe following distance and I drive real slow, I know its not right but I'm going to go ahead and do it anyways even if all you guys say its unsafe because I should probably be ok then right as long as nothing happens??

Tire Tax
 

Dear Mr Mike Tkach, (if that's your real name)

As a representative of the Federal Government I am required by law to inform you of your recent violation of the Tire Tax Code. The code clearly states that all owners of boat trailers will at all times maintain tire air pressures within .005% of each other. By your own admission you have not, to the best of your obvious inability, complied with the code.

Your are now required to remit with-in 30 days the Tie Tax Fine of $3984.26, plus S+H. This is based on the value of the air now required to bring your tire into compliance. This replacement air is only available from NASA, as your tire now requires Moon Air. (btw, don't listen to those other guys with the winter air and summer air talk, they don't know S*#+ about air) S+H is an additional $396.38

Thank You for your quick response to this matter.

Sincerely, Your Big Brother

Just checked mine......left side had 48 and 48 psi. Right side was at 50 and 50 psi. Woah Nelly!
Can't have that, so I went the easiest fix and simply swapped a tire each from left to right so each side would be balanced with 48 and 50psi. Course it is a torsion trailer, so the 50 psi tires are on front axle to help relieve some of the tongue weight.
US1 will sleep better tonight

Thanks Mr. O You're a life saver!

Question ? How did you swap tires ? Did you just unbolt the axle and rotate ? No matter how you did it you now have two tires spinning backwards . Major catastrophe waiting to happen IMHO .

Wrong! Instead of backing in the trailer the garage, I pulled it in. So the tires are spinnng the correct direction.

This is EXACTLY why you MUST use the marine dice! Automotive dice are not properly flame arrested, and WILL cause an explosion in a situation like this. Another useless waste of life.:argue::argue:

:lolhit::lolhit:

well fellas,i origionally started this thread to bring my air pressure situiation public so i could find out if the tire that only had 54 lbs was safe,but because of all the excelant responses i got,i will never move my boat without first checking the air pressure with my new nascar spec analog pressure guage,and i dont care what it cost,im gonna get some nasa air for the new tires im having put on the truck an trailer,one can never be too safe.id like to thank everyone for all the expert advise,it has been enlightening.

Rotate Your tires to someone one else. You dont want these tires. If You just changed You oil rotate it allso. Winter air sucks for towing an never ever use Nasa air. Its just out of this world. Get a grip Buddy what are You thinking. Now repaint Your boat an change You screen name so You don't loose Youe a$$. Artie
