Tire Pressure Adjustment
Recommended Tire Pressure Adjustment:
NOTE
Use a high quality accurate tire pressure gauge, and check its accuracy regularly.
^
Consider the difference of the air temperature in the workshop and the lowest ambient temperature that may be expected in the next few weeks
(especially in winter).
^
Use the chart (Figure 1) to compensate for temperature of the tires when adjusting tire pressure. Use temperature compensation Example 1 for the
spare tire.
Example 1: Temperature Compensation - "Cold" Tires
^
The vehicle has been parked overnight outside shop (vehicle has "cold" tires) and tire pressures are set to 31.9 psi.
^
Workshop temperature is 68°F and expected lowest ambient temperature in the local area is to be 14°F.
^
Subtract the expected lowest temperature (14 F) from the workshop temperature (68°F) = 54°F.
^
Using the tire pressure chart (Figure 1) find the intersection of the cold tire line at the point corresponding to 54°F and read oft the value on the tire
pressure change axis. In this case it would be about 4.9 psi.
^
The tires should be filled to:
31.9 + 4.9 psi = 36.8 psi
Example 2: Temperature Compensation - "Warm" Tires
^
The vehicle has been driven to the shop on surface streets for about 30 minutes (vehicle has "warm" tires) and tire pressures are set to 31.9 psi.
^
Workshop temperature is 68 F and expected lowest ambient temperature in your area is to be 14°F.
