Dunlop tyre loadings
With over a thousand posts it's bit hard to find if tyre loadings have been discussed.
I know a couple operators who operate with these Tyres and are getting poor mileage and uneven wear.
We have Dunlops with main wheel load ratings of 4000 lbs printed on them.
Nose wheels with 2150 lbs printed.
The Dunlop aviation tyre website for the 139 also says 140 psi recommended, and I know the maintenance manual mentions 210 psi.
4000
4000
2150
2150
12300 total rating on tyres, 139 weighs either 14,110lbs or 14,900 MAUW.
Am I missing something here??? Some one else must have noticed!!
Are people operating with overloaded and overinflated tyres?
Has anybody any solutions or point me to previous post.
Mick.
