Inflate them with nitrogen like they do race tires.

Nitrogen loses pressure when cooled just like every other gas. The difference would be the lack of water vapor condensing inside the ball and chemical reaction between the oxygen and the rubber bladder, both of which should be a small fraction of the pressure drop.

The pressure at 40 deg will still be lower than at 75 degrees.
