If you are careful and do it correctly, you will get the exact same reading every time.
Only SLOW people have to leave on time...

Well....
As seen here you are in the range. Losts of different readings and thoughts but as Mike stated loose is better than too tight. Different models and years have differnt spec's so you need to be careful with suggestions. If you check it after the dealer adjusts it (using that $800.00 sonic tester) you can see what your krikit reads and go from there....

Krikit
Mine reads 180 on the ground. I now have 9,800 miles and it reads the same every time.
