From Carlisle Tire brochure on trailer mfg web site:
"Carlisle Tire & Wheel only recommneds and warrents tires maintained @ the max air pressure while in service. Maximun load range is only attained when tire is at maximum air pressure. There is no advantage to taking air out of the tire. (p. 7 attached)
p. 9 gives general torque per SEMA Wheel Indusry Council;
7/16" lug 70-80 ft/lbs
1/2" lug 75-85
9/16 lug 105-115
