I have been running 38psi in the front and 36 psi in the rear-->Very smooth ride during the summer months.

I know the door says 39 psi in all 4-->Which makes for a really stiff or firm ride.

Max pressure on these awesome Goodyear tires shows 44.

5 days ago Temps dropped to 10*F. Tires dropped to 34psi in the front and 32psi in the rear... Tire Warning Light is on.

I am curious what other owners run in these Fine Goodyears during the winter months... Since they seem to not hold pressure very well when the temps drop.

Today I bumped the front up to 40psi and 39 in the rear-->Ya what a difference in ride.... just to keep the tire warning light from coming on.

I just put air in mine the other day (38psi). this morning they were down to 36-37psi @34°F. This afternoon at cold start up they were at 40-41psi. They vary so much. I probably should full them with nitrogen to keep more consistent because I would be back to the beach as often now that the weather has gotten colder.
