That means, before the tire has moved more than a few miles, does not mean ambient outside temp., as tires roll the temp inside rises, so if you over air the tires they can burst when the air heats and expands in a tire, (just like over inflating a balloon)
Stop. A tire is not going to burst if you fill it when hot. It's just not. Will it be overfilled when hot? Yep, sure will.
I have taken thousands of tire temps and hundreds if not thousands of tire pressures over the years at the race track. They just don't increase that much unless you have a WHOLE bunch of water in the tire. If this is the case one should refill with "dry" air or nitrogen.
