"Cold" tire pressure

n makes a lot of difference here. V can change somewhat, but not enough to really care about.

How do you figure n makes any difference at all? The assumption was that you are not adding or removing any air from the tire, just changing the temperature. N stays the same. And yes, I realize the volume of the tire will change a bit, but as you said, not enough to matter much.
 
Wow!!! Monk would be proud of this thread! :bolt

You could always just use nitrogen and eliminate any worry about temp fluctuations. :stick

What he said, 2-3 pounds difference makes little difference in street riding.

Remember the thread where someone was letting out air when in CO at high altitudes, and adding it at low altitude:banghead
