my tire pressure reads 28 psi for all 4 tires in 20degrees, It may translate to 34 degrees in the summer.

question: do you adjust the amount of air in the tire as temperature changes to retain a constant reading(say 35F/32R as manual suggested) ?

You should be raising your pressure to keep the recommended pressure year round.

got it thanks Mike.

Yes I do adjust to keep the pressures constant when there are big temperature changes. When they are 3 psi low, you can already start to feel the steering getting heavy and the ride feels sloppy.

I check my tires every 1-2 weeks and as temp drops I increase so that cold pressure is where I want it. During peak of winter I may go up and extra 1-2 PSI cold since my garage is warmer and when the car is sitting outside at work all day on a cold day I like to compensate for that drop. I don't mind tires being being over rather than under my desired pressures.
