Where to take tire temps
I just picked up an IR thermometer. Where is the best location to take tire temperatures, tread or sidewall? Joe

It doesn't really matter. Just for fun check a tire in several different locations. I'll bet the temp will be the same no matter where you check it, if you do it as soon as you stop after driving for half an hour.
I use a radiant thermometer, and check out tires when we stop for breaks. The temperature may vary from tire to tire as much as 10 degrees, depending on the sun. Over 10 degrees and I start to worry.
