The influence of water is also exagerated often.
Even if you put a gallon of liquid water in a tire, at 212 degr F ( boiling point at ambient pressure of 14.7 psi) , the extra pressure for the waterpart is max 14,7 psi.
OK, thats a lot on 65 psi, but it then gives lesser deflection,so lesser heatproduction then dry air, wich is positive for the temp of rubber of tire.

And for 162 degrF in tire only 5 psi extra rising of pressure by the water.

Filling tires with a compessor with vessel, then first give vessel highest pressure it is allowed, then fill the tires to needed pressure.
The watergas then condenses to liquid, wich you can drain, or uf not, wont go in the tire, and tou have less then 1% water as gas in the tire. And this is only if you dont want the pressure rising by water.
