Hello, I'll be making a couple of trips to Lake Tahoe. I live in San Francisco so it's not economical to get winter tires. I know by dropping tire pressure a little bit, you will expand the surface area which will make contact with the ground. So how much should I drop?

Stock spec says tire pressure should be at 32psi... I was thinking I'll drop down to 28psi?

I'm only asking because the Top Gear guys were advised to do so, of course their condition was far more extreme (North Pole)

so... increase tire pressure? alright

then what the hell were the top gear guys doing with deflating the tires?

Please don't really on a TV show for your automotive knowledge...especially one that is now based around entertainment (moreso than it used to be).
