Subject:syncro-tire pressure
From:Jason Willenbrock
Date:Tue, 20 Jul 2004 14:36:19 -0400

hey all,
my recommended tire presssure for my 14 inch wheels on my 87 syncro westy is
36 in front and 40 in rear.  so this psi is done when cold.  after driving a
some highway miles in this heat the tires heat up significantly and the
pressure of course increases.  the increase is 4 psi all around.  should i
adjust for this increase and let air out, or is this increase taken into
consideration and allowed for?  i don't want my new vc to be working anymore
than it has to. so do i let air aout when a lot of driving is going to be
done, or just don't worry about it and make sure the psi is the same on the
rears and the fronts?

thanks
jason
