Tire pressure fluctuation when hot
Via my tire pressure monitor kit, I noticed that my tire pressures in all 6 tires increased uniformly by as much as 18psi from cold pressure on a long trip thru the desert. Is this normal? I drive...

Thank you for the reassurance.
I expected them to increase once heated up, but not by that much. I've read somewhere to expect 1psi increase for every 10 degrees F change. Even my tire monitor sounded the alarm with these numbers. I had to manually override the threshold to shut it up, but was afraid that I shouldn't have ignored them.
