Tire pressure readout

2017 F type SVR
There are 2 sets of pressures displayed for each tire

(38) (38)
(37) (37)

(38) (38)
(37) (37)

Is the bottom number the recommended pressure and the top the measured pressure?

Agreed, also if you check tyre pressure reading whilst driving it will only show pressure measured and omit the recommended pressure

Is the recommended pressure static or does it vary based on temp?

I have never seen it change.

The recommended pressure is always the pressure recommended when the tires are COLD. It does not change as tires heat up. When your tires warm up, their pressure will be 3-4 psi higher. With normal driving in moderate temps, this usually takes about 10 miles.
