    There are 3 temperatures shown for each tire. Is it.......

    Front left tire Front right tire
    outer/middle/inner inner/middle/outer
    Which is how I would read the tire temperatures (oriented to the direction of travel and position on the car).

    OR
    "Outer/middle/inner" for each tire?

    hmmm. Because of the way AMS suspension tuning is laid out, I assumed it's an overhead view.

    --------- overhead view of car---------------
    LF Tire-------------------------RF Tire
    80/78/76----------------------76/78/80


    LRTire----------------------RRTire
    87/84/82 ------------------82/84/88
    So the temps should look like the above.

    And in a setup program, the temps were labeled
    inner, center, outer based on the orientation of the tire to the car.

    I went through a left hand turn and wasn't sure if my tire readings were correct since they looked like this.

    LFTire--------------------RFTire
    80/78/77--------------84-80-78 ?????
    Wasn't sure how I could get lower outside shoulder temp readings in a left hand turn for the right front tire. Unless my camber was massively off or I stopped the lap at the wrong time to take temp readings. Or the tire temps are labeled differently.

    my real car speedo label is "MPH".
    AMS speedo label is "Mi/H"
    different label. - although it means the same thing.

    so I had to ask to be sure.
