I am running 110 psi in the front, and 90 psi in the bogies as per Newell's recommendation.

hi,
my vin plate says to run 110 in the drives and 100 on tag and 140 on front (with 22.5). the max pressure on the 365's is 125.
john are you running the 365's on the tag as well?
i was pretty sure i was running 115 in the front last year, but i just dont remember.

Yes, I am running 365's on the rear also. I did that for the speed rating, as well as the load range..

I'm running the fronts at 115 lbs after having them at 110 for a year. I feel a better handling ride...

I run the fronts (365s) at 110. I prefer the softer ride...but may try to go to 110 and see how I like it. Larry, do you have a rear sway bar? That is the one thing that I added to my coach that helped handling the most. Before the sway bar, I always felt that my coach might tip over. With the sway bar much, much better. My coach already had a front sway bar.
Also, (I know that I dont know what I am talking about)....I replaced the front air bags. That also seemed to help with the jarring when I hit a bump.

What does the front weigh? What do the Michelin tire charts say for that weight? Sorry for being a smarty pants.

Richard,
I understand the weight / recommendation thing. Good point. I had Newell measure my coach, and I think the charts called for 105 at my weight. Is there any downside to running a little higher pressure?
thanks!

Hey Bill,
Have both and don't feel any listing or top heaviness. I spent many hours in a race car over the years and prefer a little less mushy front end and that 5lbs seems to do it for me or at least makes me think it, lololol.. Either pressure offers a superb ride and Newell will suggest 110 to 115 depending on your weight considerations. In the summer heat I may adjust down to 110 again to compensate for the expansion as last summer I felt a difference in 100 degree plus temps and adjusted down to 110 then.

I run 110 in the front 365s as well as the drive tires, but only 100 in the tag tires.
