Thanks for sharing that input. Based off simple math, your tires go up less than 18 PSI, mine go up 20+ PSI. I originally set the high limits at an arbitrary +10 PSI as a starting point. I increased that to +15 PSI as they heated up while driving but I became a little concerned when the PSI's all went above 120 PSI, highest was about 121 PSI. I checked all tires before leaving - with a gauge which read 100 PSI and the Tire Patrol reading 102 PSI, so based off that, the tires went up over or around 20 :SI. This may be okay and really, I'm not too concerned about it because I was driving normal on good roads and tires with only 7,000 miles on them. I just wanted to ask if anyone else has experienced this just as a little additional comfort that it's normal.

Regarding the sun shining on the wheels, I bought tire covers which should be good to keep that "magnifying glass effect" from happening.

Thanks for replying Tfry, safe travels!
