Don't want to hi-jack this thread but as a newbie I've got to ask. If you're supposed to check your tire pressure cold and find you need air how do you do that if you've got to drive 5 miles to a gas station air pump? Is 5-6 miles short enough where you're not heating up your tires ? Hope this is worded so that it makes sense to you guys.
I always add an extra 5 lbs when faced with that situation and a little more wouldn't hurt. You should be 15 lbs over what's required to begin with, otherwise you're going to be running low on at least one tire throughout a lengthily trip, with all the variables you might encounter.
