label. Tire pressure must be checked while the tire
is cold. Do not check tire pressure immediately after
towing the trailer. Allow at least three hours for the tires
to cool, if the trailer has been towed for as much as
one mile. Tires can lose air over a period of time.
Replace the tire before towing the trailer if the tire
treads have less than 2/32 inch depth or the telltale
bands are visible.
A bubble, cut or bulge in a side wall can result in a
tire blowout. Inspect both side walls of each tire for
any bubble, cut or bulge; and replace a damaged tire
before towing the trailer.
If you are storing your trailer for an extended period,
make sure the tires are inflated to the maximum rated
pressure indicated on the sidewall or VIN label and
that you store them in a cool, dry place such as a
garage. Use tire covers to protect the tires from the
harsh effects of the sun.
