Tyre pressure varying temperatures
Discussion
At the moment the tempature varies during the day. E.g. it's 5 degrees this morning and now it's 19!
Tyre pressure varies on temperature so I was thinking. If I check them first thing, when it's 5 degrees, the pressure will be higher later on, so they will be overinflated.
So is it better to have overflated tyres or underflated by having the correct temperature at 15 degrees

A couple of articles here:-

where the test show that the pressure change for 10 degree C the change was 1.5 psi.
https://www.driverknowledgetests.com/resources/how...
which claims that a 10 degree difference will change the pressure by 1.9 psi.
