Hi. I've recently bought a new trailer to lug all the camping gear around in and am not sure what pressure to set the tyres to.

The trailer is unbraked and has a laden weight of 750kg and the wheels are 13" with 155/70 R13 tyres.

Any ideas would be much appriceated.

I'd hazard a guess between 25-30 psi

Going by my old ford fiesta which had that size tyres

Don't know how to do a 'link' but Hammersleys web site has a trailer tyre pressure table. www.hammersleys.com/tyre

That's the exact same tyre as fitted on my 2009 Lider Alicante Trailer also rated at 750kg.

Tyre pressure is stated as "Pression des pneumatiques" 2.5 bars (36 psi) according to the instructions that came with the Trailer.

Hope that helps
