As recommended, I only check my tire pressure when the tires are cold. This was not a problem when I lived in Wisconsin, but now that I live in southern Utah I am only able to check my tires early in the morning on below normal January days.

 
IN theory tire pressures should be checked at 68-70 degrees. At altitude, I wouldn't do any adjusting, probably cooler up there that will negate any 'gain' from altitude.

 
I run a mix. In the front i use 30 PSI motorcycle air and 12 PSI Darkside air. In the rear i only use 20 PSI mororcycle air and the throw in 24 PSI Darkside air. I usually switch out the darksie air ir I plan on hitting the twities hard but then the tires suffer accordingly.

 
Dang...this is really getting complicated.

I prefer single malts to blends.
