What’s wrong with it?
THE TIRE PRESSURE SPECIFIED ON THE CERTIFICATION LABEL FOR THE REAR TIRES SHOULD BE INCREASED TO 110 PSI. THIS WILL INCREASE THE GROSS LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY OF THE TIRES.
ON CERTAIN MOTOR HOMES, DEPENDING ON THE FLOOR PLAN CONFIGURATION AND OPTIONS, THE ACTUAL WEIGHT ON THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE TIRES COULD EXCEED THE TIRE CAPACITY FOR THOSE TIRES AT THE CURRENT COLD INFLATION PRESSURE SETTING.
