don't take this to the bank.
I shoot the IR gun at the steel rim, not the drum(easier to shoot it at) and get 120-140. they key to testing, is similar readings accross different rims, if one is way off, investigate further. That testing is normal testing, like when I am getting gas.

Varies, but all 4 should be fairly constant.

Matt
The only people in Canada that think in metric are all under 30 and they
don't know what they are saying.
"What kind of gas mileage do you get with that thing?"
There are 2 answers:
1) "Great, I can go to Halifax and back on a single tank."
2) "I get around 300km to a tank."
"How big is the tank?" I ask.
The response is always the same... " I don't know, but it gets great
mileage! "
