Perhaps if I hadn't spent about eight hundred thousand out of the last million kilometres driving generally FWD vehicles with plastic wheel covers, I might have put up with them. My older RWD vehicles generally* either had after market Alloy wheels or even hubcaps on the first car I ever bought...

I set 2.8 front and 2.9 rear at 12 degrees Celsius in the afternoon. Given that it is only going to drop to about -4 degrees in the middle of Winter here, shouldn't see any warning alarms for quite a while. Feels happier on the road with a little more pressure, and ride is still not harsh...

I guess most people in the UK won't be having problems with Tyre Pressures at the moment, because the weather is getting warmer. Here in Launceston*, the temperatures have been falling and will continue to fall for the next couple of months *Launceston Tasmania, not Launceston Cornwall

Your Bicycle obviously doesn't have a TPMS. If it was an MG, the warning would come on at 49psi and not reset even when you pumped the tyres back to 50psi

I can only assume that Jacques Charles probably didn't have a TPMS

Absolute Tyre Pressure should be proportional to the Absolute Temperature As an example, if your Tyres have been inflated to 2.5 Bar at 20 degrees Celsius, that is 3.5 Bar Absolute at 293 degrees Kelvin, you would expect the Tyre Pressure to change by about 0.1Bar for every 8-degree change in...
