[Alex Smith]

Thanks Rob for the reply. There is a scale available several miles down the
interstate. I'll get that done next time out.

Alex the prevailing wisdom here involves actual weight(s) and the use
of
tire manufacturers tire guides. If you cannot weigh your coach at each wheel
position then the next best is to weigh the axels. Once you have the weights
you then proceed to the manufacturers tire guide (Michelin has one) and find
your tire and size and the correct pressure for the load you are carrying.
Front and tag axel weights divided by two and dual wheeled drive axel weight
divided by four.
