Tire have max pressure of 60 PSI. They were at 57 when I left MI, while driving to FL got up to a max of 69. Is this acceptable while driving? Temps were just a few degrees above ambient.
One interesting point, right side tires run a touch hotter 2F over left side.
You say tire max is 60 psi, and 57 when you left. Normal TT tires would be 50/65/80 max pressure, or more, depending size/plies. If yours are supposed to be 65, running them at 57 will cause more heat. Towing at normal speed, a gain of 10 psi is normal. The sun side does run slightly warmer, normal also.
