Ack, with the latest Dinan Sways and Springs, less roll, more tyre effort. So the extra grip I have in the 235/40 19 275/35 19 and less roll results in rubber heating faster. Nice side effect. When trying 35F 38R at 25C it becomes rapidly 39-40F 44-46R. Car bounces, rear can slip. Have you experienced this?

I use a digital meter. More so as when I tried inflator gauges, analog gauges, they vary as wildly as 6-10PSI. The digital seems rock solid. In addition, I also use the good old chalk method. But these tires are so temperature sensitive. So 32/35 at 11C becomes 33.5 / 37.5 at 25C, and 4-6 PSI more driving.
