Tire Presures ... Hot and Cold
I know tires have recommended pressures listed on the sidewall and always assumed it is the hot number. Is there an average rule of thumb as to the temperature swings between hot and cold. 5, 10 or 15...

Correct as I misspoke.
Thanks for the correction, but at least I said check the tire guide for the correct procedure.

As I understand it the correct procedure is to get the weights at each corner and then average them across the axle and then use the tire manufacture PSI to determine correct inflation pressure In no case should you exceed the tire or rim maximum PSI specification. Check the Michelin URL for the procedure.
Slight correction.
Correct minimum PSI is based on the HEAVIER WHEEL POSITION ON EACH AXLE-- with all tires on the axle receiving the same PSI based on the heavier wheel position.
