keep in mind when you drive the tires will INCREASE a few pounds, so i would say drive around for 10 minutes, get the tires warmed up, not doing burn outs mind you, and then check the readings, add accordingly.

Per the Owners Manual "Tire pressure should be checked when your tires are cold."

Yes you set the pressure when cold ( BEFORE you drive the car) !!!! That goes for any car, All listed tire pressures are set before you drive the car (COLD) or after the car sits for at least 1 Hr. Yes the pressure goes up after you drive it. That is the way it is meant to be. |

Tires must be filled cold. To get a baseline, check first thing in the morning. I filled mine up 3 weeks ago to 36 psi, then checked again this morning and they were 32 psi.
Why? Ambient temps here have dropped 20-30 degrees since. You must check your pressures every two weeks to maintain the pressures, especially when temps rise or drop significantly. I have mine at 36 psi and have remained steady with no fluctuations since the ambient temps have stabilized. If there are no leaks in the tire, 36 psi cold in June equates to 30-32 psi cold in October. Physics...
