I don't have a pyrometer nor do I really like the idea of using the equal temps rule as an absolute.
Heres a picture of the fronts which were at 30-31psi all weekend, its a bit blurry but you can make out a really dark section where the tire is making constant contact, a slightly lighter section where the tire is only making contact under high g loads, and an untouched section (last 1/4 to the edge) where the tire isn't touching asphalt.

Should the tire be wearing more, i really didn't think i needed to push lower than 30 psi, good sidewalls on these ad07s.

I'm no expert, but I think the section of your tire that you've deemed "for hard cornering" is way too big - I don't think your tires should be folding over that far and introducing THAT much extra tread to the road around a turn...

...but then again I get my PSI advice from video games so I could be wrong...

 

that looks right for a 9.5" wheel and full tread AD07 tires

 

Thanks Mark, you ever shoot your 9.5s with a pyro ? You believe in the even temp rule or is that more so a guideline rather than a rule?

 

What the...

 

for me it's mostly by sight built on experience; grain pattern vs edge rollover vs driving feel

IMO a pyrometer will often mis-lead most people for autox pressures, the types of driving conditions encountered there are quite different than road racing

first time I ran the Advans/Enkeis was using my B Stock setup on concrete, think I was at 32 front and 27 rear and not using the outer edge of the tire, so you have to conclude that either they need less pressure or less camber or more G-loading; a B Stock car is not exactly camber heavy ...

 

Really the only way a pyrometer works perfectly is on a skidpad....or on the track when you can bail into the hot pits and do tire temps at a moments notice.

Most tracks are biased in turn directions...and you need to take that into account when you look at tire temps. One of the tracks I run has a lot of high speed left turns...and the rights are mostly short blow off corners in between the important lefts. On this track the temp data must be though over carefully...or you could jump to confusions very fast

 

exactly, and rarely on an autox do you hold a constant radius under high loading for very long, other factors are at work there ...

 

even though reading tire temp under varing situations and conditions is never perfect - readings can can still be used to help gauge the tire's/setup condition. I found this helpful...

If any of you read GRM, there is a good article on reading temps and camber adjustments in the latest issue.

 

^^GRM, lol ...
