Silly question but are you sure nothing has moved inside the van? We had new tyres fitted and on the first trip out it was definitely twitchy. After having checked things out as you have it turned out our sun loungers had moved under the fixed bed and slid towards the rear away from the axle. After putting them where they should be all was well with the world. 

65 psi seems high?!

Is that the max load number off the tyre?

What is the psi on the caravan plate?

The tyres I had fitted were a higher load rated van tyre with a 55 psi max rating, but the van plate states 45 psi and I was advised to use the van plate pressure, else it could make the van very choppy (the pressures on the tyre rated for a 3 tonne van not a 1500kg caravan).

Elddis state 65 psi for my 2013 Avante, up plated to the max 1500kg 

Thanks for the reply

The max load tyre pressure is 65psi as it was on the previous tyres

the caravan  plate pressure shows pressure as  58psi 

the bailey hand book shows 65psi.

Bailey have said previously the handbook figure is the one to use

they show 65psi for all Pegasus 2 vans despite the differences in weight between vans

whats the max pressure moulded onto the tyre??

65 psi re your previous reply waiting on info from bailey

may I ask, have you got shock absorbers fitted to the van as makes a big difference on smoother towing.

 Car tyres have 2 plies in the wall while commercial van tyre has 6 to 8 thus can be inflated to 65 psi, the only reason I know this is our local tyre dealer lives 500 yards up the road from us in the village. 

Can anyone tell me the number of side wall plies on tyres they have fitted to a bailey Pegasus 2 Genoa .

The overall number of plies is  split between tread and  side wall I suspect my problem is caused by 2 ply side  walls unfortunately I do not know what the configuration of the original tyres was
