Tire pressure

I drove my coach to the local Pilot about 4 miles away. I weighed the coach. I put enough air in so the steering tires had just over 90 lbs and the rear tires had just under  90.
So the next day while the coach was not being driven, the pressure was about 4 or 5 lbs lower on each tire.
So does that mean I should inflate them at about 5lbs more if I do it just after it has been driven since you are supposed to inflate when the tires are cold.
I used the same pressure gage each time.

The pressures should be set before using the coach.

If you have to drive to get air check cold pressure before you go and write it down for each tire.

If a tire reads 80 when cold and you want 90, put 10 pounds in at pilot.
