In my tires … lol. But seriously. Don’t forget about weather and the impact on tire pressure.

This time of the year they go up, not down. I had to let air out of my tires recently once it finally warmed up.

Which reinforces the reminder.
what temp and pressure caused you to reduce pressure?

When it got in the upper 80's and low 90's they went up quite a bit. I like to keep the tires 2-3 lbs above recommended cold pressure.

And i’m almost always dragstrip ready, just a little less.

As I'm sure you know, psi in tires change 1 psi for every 10* ambient air temp change and while driving the psi's can go up as much as 5 psi due to tire-road surface friction.

Yep. Mine were up in the low 40s when it got to 90 degrees last week and driving for a while. That's when I let some air out.

Speaking of weight...:shock: was surprised at the weight of the OEM wheels, believe wheels and tires are over 50 lb. each, owww. Been debating on getting another set of wheels to put all-season tires on. Would put the Summer Only tires on new lightweight wheels and the all-seasons on the heavier wheels. Sorry, thinking out loud..............
