Tire pressure

What pressure is best for the unit? 61 psi?

Depends on the weight of your actual unit rolling down the road.

But, a specific model would likely help as I would guess that Solera makes a few different models.

I have settled in at 68 psi cold and it seems to be a sweet spot, for me.

This jumps to around to 78-79 psi on a +100F day out on the Interstate, per my TPMS.

61 psi was not quite cutting it.

On my Prism 24J MBS the recommendation is 61psi for the weight we are pushing down on the pavement. I keep mine around 65psi- seems to work. FWIIW I recently ran mine across a scale and she topped out at 4800kg/10600lbs

If you want to calculate it more exactly, you can weigh it and then use a tire pressure/load calculation table like this one:

http://www.goodyeartrucktires.com/pd...dinflation.pdf

don't forget to add 10psi for speed as the table points out. fortunately, even if your tire brand is not goodyear, the chart is useful if you match the info on the sidewall to the chart.

hope this helps.
