Always had mine at the same, on the third set of Scorpions now, 35k miles on each and changed at 3-4 mm. |

Two Michelin digital guages, one built in to a pump and one just a guage. 2psi difference between them. |

I guess tyre tread doesn't lie, if you have less tread in the centre than both edges, then over inflated.

The pump reads lower and my tyres seem to wear pretty evenly so it's probably correct. |

I find that digital gauges tend to not be the most accurate (from my experience).

Try a local tyre fitters to compare readings I'm sure they wouldn't mind.
