I have been using a Infrared Thermometer for years. As Dock said, I look for consistency in the temp on each side. I also shoot the hubs on each wheel.
I think I paid $40 - $50 for my Raytek minitemp which is very small and fits in the door storage compartment. I have used it for all sorts of things like checking for missing insulation in walls, air leaks arouind outlets. |

What is typical tire pressure for a dual axel 12,000lb trailer?
|
The tire pressure is specific to the tire and marked on the tire not the number of axles.

Ok, I give up, I can't seem to find replacement tires on any tire sites. What do I need to look for? I cant remember if they are 27, 29, 30, or 31. I checked all the sizes.... I think when I measured they were 29" with the boat/trailer load on them
These are 8 lug wheels on 6K axles I bit the bullet and replaced mine with 16" rims. |
The best tires for 16.5 inch rims are good year workhorse LT
thats what i have. |
Just stay away from Carlisle tires. I flipped my boat, trailer and truck when a brand new rear tire blew. The tire had about 200 miles on it.
|
I have had very poor luck with Carlise as well. Had one tire that had been mounted as a spare for 1.5 years. I had to use it and it got a side wall knot in less than 40 miles. I also had a year old one blow out Labor Day weekend. These were all 8 ply tires, tandom axle trailer w/ an 8000# boat.
I know this is an old thread, just wanted to spread the word on Carlise. |
I have carlise as well no problems but I looked and they were made in china I am going to replace them in the spring.
