The tire, the vehicle. anticipated speed, temperatures, cornering requirements and the roadway are all factors that determine the optimum inflation. Most don't need to be considered by street cars, but must be factored in for racing at high speeds.

Why doesn't the psi change when a normal operating tire is removed from the vehicle it was mounted to?

I do not fully understand what you are asking. The psi of the tire is based on what vehicle it is mounted on. The same size tire mounted on two different vehicles may have totally different psi requirements. The correct pressure is listed on the vehicle driver's door post or another place on the vehicle. The psi listed on the sidewall of the tire is not the correct pressure that you should use when airing up the tire. That figure is the MAXIMUM pressure the tire can hold.I do not fully understand what you are asking. The psi of the tire is based on what vehicle it is mounted on.

If changing tires to another brand with different pressure ratings can the pressure sensors be adjusted for the different pressure on a 2001 c5 corvette?

The OEM tire pressures are regulated by the vehicle characteristics, not the tire. The same tire may be used on many different vehicles at many different operating pressures. The normal safe operating tire pressures of a vehicle are determined by the vehicle manufacturer and not the tire manufacturer. The only tire pressures that are listed on the tire are the MAXIMUM operating pressure for ANY application and the maxumum BEAD SEATING pressure. The Tire pressure sensors are calibrated to the OEM pressures, probably would not be programable. All the pressure sensing system does is warn of low vehicle tire pressure (probably below the vehicle posted minimum), correct? If the system reads and displays the actual pressure in the tire, then pressure is pressure and will remain the same regardless of the tire brand or size.
