[QUOTE="rezrider, post: 9929, member: 79"] I can only address part of your question whcih is rtelated to tire heat...all tires will get warm/hot when ridden on for any period of time at some type of speed. My wifes car has low profile tires on it and when it's cold outside the tire pressure sensor lights up (low tire pressure) BUT, once she's on the road and the tire's had a chance to warm up the light goers out due to the heat build up causing the tire to inflate. If you ever watch drag racers especially AA Top Fuelers you'll notice their back tires are very soft due to low PSI, when they take off the tire will suck in on the sides and grow in diameterwhat appears to be about 1 foot. To answer your question I figure it has to be due to friction bewteen the tire and gravel...more harder the surface the more friction. [/QUOTE]
