My wife’s Jeep goes berserk when a tire is 2# low and starts giving warnings.  It did that before we headed to Fl week before last.  My garage doesn’t ever get below 54° so I don’t pay much attention to the trailer tires.  It’s getting ready to warm up so I decided to check them.   They call for 65# cold and were only in the mid 50s so I aired them up.

Have you checked yours lately?

Sounds like you're full of air. 😆  Or rather, your trailer tires are.  Excellent and timely tip!

Yes @Dutch and thanks. Pat got warning when we went down to Sub freezing temps. Took care of that and this morning and aired up tires for jet boat this morning.

Your trailer tires Max Pressure rating correlates to its Load Range. 

Just because it says 65# on the tire doesn't mean that you should maintain 65# regardless.  Overinflation causes bad tracking and uneven wear.  

Inflate until you've removed sidewall squat, and there is about 4.5-5" of tread on the ground (roughly a hands width).    If you're not within the required PSI range at that setting then you need different tires.
