I guess someone on the list could actually run some numbers and see how much heat is produced... if a tire of w width and d diameter starts out at 32 PSI and after 30 minutes of running increases to 32+y PSI, the we could maybe say that a tire of wd volume will increase by y PSI in a 30 min period, the calories produced to make that PSI increase will keep on being produced and those calories equal z kW. Or something like that...
