Tire maintenance is best done when cold it is the closest to the actual pressure as air warms the pressure rises it may be as much as 10 pounds difference in cars so..... filling a tire warm will result in lower than safe operation pressure when cold.

How do you tell if you've overfilled your radiator and what are the consequences of doing so?
On older cars / trucks that do not have a coolant recovery tank you should fill the radiator to approximately one inch below the opening. ( when the engine is COLD } On more modern cars / trucks that have a coolant recovery tank, the radiator should be completely filled and the recovery tank should be filled to the full cold mark. You should only do this when the engine is cold to avoid personal injury. Why is the cooling system low? A pressure test should be performed and all leaks repaired.

Which gas is filled in the tires of airplane?
Aircraft tires can be filled with regular compressed air, however pure nitrogen is also often used.
Does Nitrogen in tires increase fuel efficiency?
No, tires filled with nitrogen give exactly the same fuel efficiency as tires filled with air.The real reason tires on many modern cars are filled with dry nitrogen is that air contains a small amount of water vapor which condenses out in cold weather. The resulting small drop in tire pressure is detected by the electronic tire pressure monitoring system, which gives a false warning. As dry nitrogen has no water vapor to condense its use eliminates these false warnings.
