Default Tire Pressure

According to the owner's manual and the driver's door tire chart, the recommended tire pressure is 36psi. Upon driving it climbs to 38-39 and it's not even summer yet. Does that seem a bit high to you?

No that's normal. When my tires heat up I'm at 39/40 psi. Are you using air or nitrogen? It costs but nitrogen will hold more consistent psi numbers.Plus you service tires cold.

It's nitrogen and yes the tires were measured when they were cold. It just seems high because my old car I was at around 32-34 psi.

Thanks though. Picked up my 2016 black on black yesterday!

Yes, mine has 36 psi when cold, with nitrogen, and heats up to about 39 when hot. Also, my 2015 GS 350 F-Sport (which I'm in the process of selling) has staggered 19's also and calls for 35 front and 36 rear when cold.
Thanx
