This is true as far as I am aware and I still use it. But realize that its only a rough gauge.
A better method is to use actual tire temps taken at several points across the tire width using a pyrometer (a meter with a needle-style probe that touches the tire to take the temp) and then using tire pressure to balance the temps. The downside here is that you have to buy a new device and learn to use it, but it will provide very accurate info. I'l admit that I have not gone to this level. Yet.
