Don't have a Galaxy but the tyre presures on my Conway TT (and Cabanon now build Conways as well as thier own models) is 35psi The nose weight is dictated more by your car than the trailer the figures I've seen quoted on other forums for the max nose weight for the trailer hitch far exceed any thing I've seen on a normal car. My Astra had a max of 70kg & my Peugeot's is 50kg the new Peugeot 207 is only 45kg

Hi,

I asked this question about three years ago and got told by a cabanon galaxy owner it is 34 psi. I even bought some of those valve caps that change colour when they drop below the required psi from a link on this site.

Can't help on the nose weight until Friday when I see my trailer next, but mine does have a plate on the frame so I will have a look what it says.

Yep 34-35psi for the tyres,as the max weight of the trailer laden is 500kgs, I wouldn't have thought noseweight would be a great problem.When we had ours towing with a 2.3Galaxy you had to remember it was on the back.To be on the safe side I used to put all the lightweight stuff ie buckets,spades,balls,cricket set,etc in the front box and anything I needed first, once at the site,ie pads for under the trailer legs,hook up cable,mallet,pegs, on top so it was easy to get at.There wasn't any marking re noseweight on the kitchen unit just a weight plate on front of the chassis on the left hand side as you looked at the trailer.
