Just curious... what would 'accordingly' be? I always use 38, anything less and the car feels sluggish for some reason, like you're carrying a flat.

an analog gauge. You should keep one in your glove box - though most people don't.

Also, if you over inflate your tires your car will ride like a folk lift, (rough as hell). Your tire absorb a lot of the road's irregularities, like pot holes, railroad tracks, ect.

But the gasses in the atmosphere all stay gaseous at any temperature you will ever encounter, and so will all see the same pressure increase. Nitrogen in tires is BS. |

Do you have a source for this formula....I think it Unbeknownst to most because this is pure BS....(its very good BS though). I think I'll stick with going by what the engineers at the Manufacturers Research and Development Department came up for a recommended cold pressure as long as I have stock size tires.

It has been proven that there are benefits to nitrogen in aircraft due to the pressure and temperature differences between ground level and cruising altitudes. However in automobile tires there haven't been any proven benefits over normal compressed air. Race cars and dragsters are the exceptions. |

Is the low pressure alarm suppose to go off at 32psi? I came back from a deployment and one of my tires was at 25psi and I didn't get any alarm.
