As for having to adjust the pressures on a hot car I'd just inflate the three lowest tires to the one with the highest pressure as long as it is within 3 to 5 psi of the cold spec.

As for the exact pressure to set them at. If you feel it needs to be exact, then just wait until the next day and adjust them when they're cold to whatever pressure you desire.
These guys seem to have it figured out.
