Tire temps-- any info out there?
I am running G670 19.5's on our 31 foot Itasca. I have been monitoring tire temps during travel closely but have not been able to find any good info on what temps ranges are tolerable, expected, safe...

I have checked w/IR, over-the-road tractor trailers in rest stops at times and on various types of loaded trailers. Always saw around 125d. This told me that the tire size/ loading/pressure was in that range for safe long term highway operation.
I have seen 175 on my drive axles when @ maximum load stated on the sidewall @ rated pressure. I've had a Major brand tire dealer state that tires can go much higher..I find that drive axle tires are under the most stress; inner duals run hotter.
