225/60R17 99H is the size the temperature example pairs with front 33 psi and rear 32 psi. The specifications table lists a second size, 225/55R18 98H, with front 35 psi and rear 33 psi.
The example table adjusts pressure when the garage is 60°F and the outside temperature is much colder. Those adjusted numbers are not the standard cold pressures.
Wheel-nut torque is on the lug-nut guide.
