That's interesting you mentioned you were missing a valve cap. The recommended procedure is to let some air out to force any water that may be in the valve and replace the air.

You also mentioned you were running between 35 and 37 psi on your OEM tires. The recommended pressure is 32 psi COLD. Of course with colder weather pressures drop. With that in mind I'd reduce it, but remember that's with cold tires. In other words don't drive more than one mile when checking your tires.

As a point of reference you will lose 1 psi (7 kPa ) for every 5° C drop in temperature.
