This thread says differently.

Pardon my ignorance but if I read this correctly then I should run 33-35 psi cold on road conditions then deflate to 26-28 psi cold for track conditions?

* I run my PS2 road tyres based on 35psi cold

* I run my track Cup tyres based on 26psi cold (as their pressures generally increase to an optimal 32-33psi when hot)

Hope this helps clear your confusion!

those are all relating to track where you get 4-6 psi gain with temperature increases.

I think I got it. So if I want to run my goodyear F1's on the track I should make sure they run about 32-35 psi hot.... Which means I might have to take some air out.

On the road I should leave them as 32-35 psi cold as they will never warm up properly...
