Dear the pro, I read online that it is best to not add air to your tires in certain temperatures, or within 2 hours of driving your car. Can you give me instructions as to the best time, temperature, and procedure for adding air to your tires. Also, is it better to follow the manufacturers PSI recommendations from inside the door even if you have tires different from the factory rubber that calls for a different pressure?

thanks for your help.

Tire pressure can be tricky. If your vehicle is equipped with the original tire size that is stamped on your door, that is the air pressure that I would go with. Keep in mind, tire pressure is going to fluctuate due to hot or cold temperatures.
