OK, I'm not getting back in to this today. You win i Loose, Happy...

Going out on my Varadeo later to enjoy the cold air.

What are the cold tyre pressures for your Varadero, will you be compensating for the ambient temperature and tyre warming up with use.

I hope that this discussion is helping to answer the questions Our Gee has asked.

Stuff the tyre pressures David...more importantly when did you join the porsche club? Don't be stalking me on the porsche forum as well .

Which 718 did you get?

Many thanks for all the answers, unfortunately David, it all seems a bit technical for my level of science and physics. I always did understand that pressures do increase with the rolling resistance of the tyre, it's where the Ambient temperature at inflation time comes into the equation that I get lost.
So then, to make it simple I've just been outside, gave each Tyre a three second "Hiss" and ran the car around the block and it now feels smashing.
Thanks again and Happy Christmas.

@ Our Gee.

Please you have it sorted
