TIRE TEMPERATURES

Tire carcass temperatures, measured via Pyrometer, once the car has returned to the pits. Wheel Loads and the amount of work 
a tire is doing on-track are reflected in the tire’s temperature, and these values can be used to analyze the car’s handling balance. 
Center temperatures are useful for directly comparing the work done by each tire, while the Inner and Outer temperatures are 
useful for analyzing the wheel alignment (predominantly camber) while on track. These values are measured in three zones across 
the tread of the tire. Inside, Middle and Outer.

TREAD REMAINING

The amount of tread remaining on the tire once the car has returned to the pits. Tire wear is very helpful in identifying any possible 
issues with alignment, such as one side of the tire wearing excessively, and can be used in conjunction with tire temperatures to 
analyze the car’s handling balance. These values are measured in the same zones as those of temperature.
