I guess we've drifted from the original subject, but tires have always been a huge subject for coaches.
One of the first things I did was to get a TPMS as part of my update to my coach. I'd read all the horror stories, and at least with a TPMS, I could easily check pressures any time I wanted to. I'm also not one to go over about 57 miles per hour typically in the driving I do (note that's the 6th gear changeover speed in economy mode), though my cross country trip did sometimes see 60-65 but not for long. I'm not in a hurry - and my wife is certainly not in a hurry

Since we're on the subject of tire pressures, and we all know they change according to temperature, and that the tire manufacturers and vehicle makers prescribe a certain tire pressure as being MAXIMUM tire pressure for a tire, at what temperature do they mean?
Do you have to take air out at 75, 85, 105 degrees, lest the maximum is exceeded? Then put it back in, when the sun goes down?
I'd read some place that 65 degrees was the temperature the maximum is alluding to, but haven't been able to find that reference again - only the word AMBIENT. That's the temperature I use as a base line and for my coach and tires at that temperature, its 105lbs, and this based on my experience in the coach going across country. I'd seen pressures on the TPMS as high as in the low 120s while travelling. What are others seeing on the TPMS?
