Tire charts are a great tool and a solid reference
As the driver you determine your situation
For example , you are traveling across the Midwest on a 100 degree day traveling on 150 degree asphalt with a 30 mph crosswind
Anyone routinely traveling the Midwest has done this more than once
This is the time to be monitoring the tire temperatures closely or you might contribute another gator to the intestate
It isn't the time to be marginally inflated either

That's why everyone should have tpms, they can monitor tire pressure and temperatures. I was traveling through Iowa at 75mph at times on a 95 degree day without any problems. Without tpms we never know what is going on
