So you're saying the 51psi tire isn't built any differently than the 44psi one? I doubt that.

A quick search brought up pages on Goodyear, Michelin, and Firestone's sites, all stating to set the pressure COLD. I know they make tires with both 44 and 51 psi ratings, and yet they don't make a separate statement for those.
