What's the best tire pressure?
I have a '99 E430 Sport. The other day I observed my back tires were at 23lbs pressure and the front were at 28 lbs. This was after driving all day so the heat had already built-up the pressure.
The tires I use say Max pressure is 44lbs. Should I have them inflated to 35lbs or 38lbs. What's the best amount of pressure for performance and life of the tire?
When is it best to check the pressure first thing before you drive or after the tires have heated up? Also I live in Miami, a hot environment, so the driving conditions are always hot.
tire size: 235/45 ZR17 BFGoodrich g-force T/A kows on alloy rims.
