    I agree, I'm talking out of my bottom.
    (i)Boyles (PV=k )
    (ii)Charles law is V/T =k
    P=pressure, V = volume, T = temperature, and k is a constant.

    Susbs (ii) into (i) gives

    P= 1/T. => pressure varies inversely to temperature.

      Hmm, that's not quite right Dan. See my previous post .

        Hi Tina,

        I live out in the sticks and mainly only drive country roads, tried a set of RS4 18's and only lasted a day with them! Ride was *****, bumpy and crashy, and it pulled all over the place under hard braking and acceleration. In all honesty I could drive much faster with the standard 16x8's and 225/50's than I could with the 18's 'cause I wasn't fighting the car all the time. I don't know how you can cope with the 19's on B-roads. Fine for all these guys that drive motorways and dual carriage ways but having tried them on the back roads, I'd say get yourself back to 16's or 17's and a tyre with a bit of sidewall to ease the pain!

        My 2p.

        Graeme.

          Anything u can read about nitrogen is ******** !! Just commercial stuf !

          The difference it produces isn t worth it, otherwise all racing teams would be using it, and that s not the case !!

            Hi, with ref: fighting the car, (aye, that exactly) there are some roads i want to drive late at night, keilder way. But my shoulders/arms aint built like Arnie's. But a slow drive no probs, just no fun.
            My boyfriend has a GTO, so that took the keilder run :mischeif:
            (not as boosty as my S2 )
