Tire pressure
Tires inflated to the maximum pressure stated on side wall , how much will that pressure increase from the heat of the road ? for you folks that have tire monitors , Thanks

I agree with capri-racer that , because it even needs higher pressure then 90 psi to get a low enaug temperature-rising, this can only be done by ST tires with higher maxload-pressure then 80 psi in same sises, or LT tires with a same or bit higher maximum load then the ST tires, but then need even more pressure needed for the maximum load.
Can be that you have to go to larger tires.
And a higher maxloadpressure means a stiffer tire, so needs more pressure even for the same load .
Could be ending then in pressures of over 100 psi .
Also another problem can rise.
Your TMPS might go only to 100psi . If then it goes over it, it will give for instance at 101 psi a pressure of 1 psi and then the alarm for to low pressure goes off. Then you yourself know its OK and you mayby yust shut down the low alarm and monitor the pressures and yudge yourselfes if they are to low.
I asume you have metal valves wich can stand a pressure of over 145 psi so those wont give problems.
