What should be the air pressure in cars tire?
It is different for different cars. Most cars will have a sticker on the drivers door or door frame giving the correct pressure (it's been required on all new cars for quite a while now). Open the drivers door and look for the sticker. Read the small print on the side of the tire, somewhere it will tell you what the maximum pressure is that you should put in the tire (it will be 35 psi for most car tires). Don't go over this pressure when the tires are cold (if you check the pressure when the tires are hot the pressure may be higher, this is OK). Always check the pressure when the tires are cold. For example, check them in the morning before driving the car. Driving the car will warm up the tires. If you check the pressure when the tires are warm, then the pressure in them will be too low whan they cool off. If you don't find a sticker, then I recommend 32 psi. This is a safe number for most cars. But it might be too low for pickup trucks or larger SUV's. It is better to have the pressure too high than too low (as long as it is not over the maximum listed on the side of the tire). Higher pressures are safer. If the pressure is too low, you could have the tire fail at highspeed, likely causing you to crash. Higher pressures will also give you better gas milage. Really the only drawback to a higher pressure is that it might make the ride feel a bit harsher on rough pavment.

What is best for a wheelchair pneumatic tires or run-flat tires?
Pneumatic will ride smoother, but you have to worry about a puncture and check the air pressure regularly. Run flat are expensive and do not last as long. I would recommend foam filled tires over either of those options. They will not ride as good but they are worry free albeit a little expensive.
Would you tire pressure be greater at the beginning or end of a long car trip?
Greater as tire pressure raises as you drive and tires get hot.
What is the correct air pressure for 2004 Pontiac vibe tires?
A 2004 Does not have Tire pressure monitors. There for, as a tire shop manager, I would set your tires to 35 PSI. An easy number for both of us to remember and a good pressure for proper tire wear. Just keep air in your tires and you will save $$$ in the long run.

Not really. you can get good tires fairly cheap but check on how long they are rated to last.
Why truck drivers are encouraged to monitor and adjust air pressure in their tires during long trips?
Proper air pressure makes for the best gas mileage. Too soft and it wastes energy. Too hard and the tires are not safe to drive on.

For any car (as long as it has the stock size tires) you are supposed to go by what tire pressure it says right in the drivers side door jamb. But the s2000 is 32 psi in all four tires.
Can a digital odometer be inaccurate?
Yes they are extrememly accurate as long as you are using the OEM size tires that came on the car from the factory and they have the correct air pressure as recommended by the manufacture. They are also not going to be as accurate with worn out tires as they are with new tires.
