Yes, the practice is to follow the tire manufacturer when they tell us the recommended cold air pressure. We fill the tire to that pressure cold and do not add or remove air when hot. I am fairly certain that tire manufacturers understand the principals and dynamics of heat on air pressure and that is why they quote a COLD inflation figure only. We run a truck fleet with over 200 Michelin tires back and forth from Canada to the southern US this way every day without issue or without letting air out of the tires Jim Doel Perth, Ontario 2007 M380 Stainless Steel w/26' Featherlight trailer jimdoel@me.com |
