Can anyone tell me what the correct air pressure is on 16.5X8.75 tires

Mine says 75 lbs on the sidewall and that is what I put in them.

Thanks Richard I'll try 75lbs.

Go to a tire shop you trust and ask them for their opinion based on the number of plys and the load rating stamped on your tires.  It's also helpful to know your rig weight when fully loaded.  You could be over inflating at 75 p.s.i.
 My Mich. tires say 65 p.s.i. max.

Tigers right always look at your side walls they will tell you the load rating and max inflate pressure never go over this amount I sold tires for ten years and Iv seen a lot of motor homes lost or damaged from overinflated tired that blew out not fun
