What temps can the V710's handle in A/X? I saw a few people cooling their tires between runs during the last event at DIA, and was wondering if I'm overheating mine?

I measured the surface temp across the front a rear tires and saw temps around 120-130F, but did see temps as high as 140 at one point. Is this too hot?

Btw, the temps were measured with a pyrometer as soon as I returned to grid.

Those temps are just about right. But they are getting near the hot side. Any hotter any you might want to water them down. If I came in at 140 and still had another run to go, then I would probably water them. 710's usually don't need watering unless you've got 2 drivers or it's a really hot day on asphalt.
