NOTE:
It is permissible to add 3psi (21kPa) to the standard tire pressure specification
if colder temperatures are expected soon. Tires typically loose 1psi (7kPa) for
every 12°F (-11°C) temperature drop. If extreme temperature variations are expected,
re-check your tire pressure as necessary to keep them properly inflated.
