The values for tire pressure in table above are for tires at 68°F (20°C).
The tire pressure will increase as the tires become warm (e.g. during high-
way driving), and decrease as they cool.

When the temperature of the tires increases or decreases by 10 degrees

the tire pressure will correspondingly increase or decrease by 2 psi/10 kPa.
