Rather than hijacking another thread, I was hoping to get some feedback on what is a normal rise in pressure.
Thanks All!

Weight and speed have the greatest effect on tire pressure gain. It all has to do with tire flexing (remember it is flat on the bottom) Weight is the main reason the front tires gain less pressure than the rear (less flexing). The inside rear will usually gain the most pressure because of less cooling air around the tire.
