Hello

[Robp28]

I have an avondale dart 556/6 2005 can any one please tell me what are the correct tyres and tyre pressure for this caravan

Thank you

This discussion gives it as "We have a 2005 Dart 556/6 and this has a tyre size of 165/R13/C".

The pressure will depend on what is written on the side wall of the tyres you buy. You proportion max pressure to max weight and number of axles/wheels.

Hi Rob. Thank you for posting and welcome to the Practical Caravan forum.

It has an MTPLM of 1300kg. I would think the pressure should be about 56 lb. Hope someone has more information though as difficult to find out without a handbook.

Hi Rob
Welcome to the forum.
The above link will help and maybe surprise you. 65 psi.
However we do not know what wheels you have nor your current tyres.
The tyres need to be rated for both load and pressure.
There should be a plate somewhere on the Avon dale giving you its MIRO and MTPLM. This will also help you choose the correct loading tyres assuming the tyre size is confirmed.

Not sure there is a plate showing tyre pressures on Avondales. I certainly never found one on our Argente it was only in the handbook which I no longer have.
You might try this site for information. http://www.tyresafe.org/check-your-pressures/caravan-pressure-calculator/

Thanks Ray
Alll our Baileys had the tyre pressure plate so I just assumed this would be an industry norm

The pressure per tyre will be:

[MTPLM] divided by [number of tyres] divided by [Max load printed on tyre side wall] multiplied by [Max pressure printed on tyre side wall]

The above formula allows for different manufacturers giving different max load @ max pressure figures. Just because one person has their tyre at a certain pressure it doesn't mean the next person has to use that pressure iF the tyres are different.
