Tire temp with infered gun

How hot of tire temp readings have some of you gotten on hot days?

Driving in Eastern WA today and checked tire temp and it was 161 on one dual and on other side one tire was 157. Outside temp was 97 and on asphalt road.

Does anybody have a "normal" range?
What is to hot?
