Historically speaking, I have always checked tire pressure when the tires are "cold" (regardless of whether the car is in the garage or not). If the car is in the garage then I adjust for outside temperature (e.g. plus or minus 1psi for each 10 degree (F) change between the two). For example, if it is 60 in the garage but 40 outside then I know my tires in the garage are likely 2psi higher than if the car was outside.
Long story short, I believe pressure adjustment needs to be based on the outside temperature as this is the operating environment for the vehicle. If the temperature range outside on any given day is 20 degrees, I would likely inflate my tires to where I estimate the pressure would be at the temperature in the middle of the range
Hope this helps...
