Interesting . . . 33 hot seems a bit low, IMO . . . did they recommend a hot temp as well?

I typically use a line dryer when running air for both rains and slicks -- it's easier than trying to get shops to use nitrogen fills, and keeps me from having to purge 4 or 5 times to get a real benefit out of it. Believe me, tho . . . I do consider sticking nitrogen on the trailer.

I'd still recommend checking temps across the tread when you have a choice -- you'll probably find that you're running hot in the center, which will match the wear you're seeing. Hot, I'd normally expect to see pressures about 3-4lbs more than what you're seeing, however would defer to Goodyear on hot temps & pressures.
