there'll be a plate on the van Mark, the one that says the weight
If I recall correctly my Adria was 65psi, and the other was 55psi
I think my trailertent says 45psi, saintsboy put a sticker over the tyres as a reminder |

I've been having a read on www.caravantalk.org.uk at various posts
it seems that budget tyres (30-36psi) are around 1/2 pressure of decent ones (50-65psi)
and yes, yours certainly seems low
most folk are saying 50psi & over |

No idea what the answer is mate, but I need to find this out as well. I'm planning to phone the local caravan centre to ask them! |
