Mike -

This is a great link, and one that I never spotted. Not only does it answer the question you referred to, but it answers a number of other questions that come up from time to time. For example:
o What does it mean to inflate my tires COLD?
o Should I let some air out of the tires as the day warms up?
o Should I always inflate the tires to the pressure listed on the sidewall?
o Will lower inflation pressure give a smoother ride?
o Should I use metal valve caps, or the plastic ones that came with my wheels?
o Should I have the tire/wheel assembly balanced? If so, when?
o Tires have a load-carrying specification. Do the wheels also have a load rating?

Thanks

Bill
