There is disclosed a load distribution system for a road vehicle, which system comprises a main wheels suspension which is preferably the steering wheels suspension and an auxiliary wheels suspension. The system includes air-inflatable balloons in the auxiliary suspension and an air compressor to feed said balloons. A weight sensor constantly measures the weight carried by the main suspension and sends corresponding signals to a computer. The system further comprises a control assembly for the auxiliary suspension constructed to receive pressure air from the compressor and feed it to the auxiliary suspension balloons. The control assembly is connected to the computer which is programmed to respond to the weight variations by correspondingly adjusting the pressure in the balloons of the auxiliary suspension in order to let the auxiliary suspension carry any extra weight which exceeds a preselected maximum weight to be carried by the main suspension.
