To be honest i dont know anything about car setup but like i mention just now if you check out Forza / nK-pro / Race 07 even Iracing setup guide they all say the same thing. Of course they have the explanation for this but you better go read yourself. I dont think i wanna paste it here.I may well be wrong, but this "setup to get 5 degree differential in tire temps between inner-mid-outer", rather than improve overall handling matching your driving style, seems a bit of a rabbit hole/dead end to me.
Last time I tried that dev app, my temps were speading fine in every corner. Not saying it was +-5deg, but it was enough. I mostly drive race cars. Will have to try it for different cars

I never get more than 2° IMO
That is, temperature is a side effect. It is not the desired behavior or the reason why you'd adjust a camber or toe setting - or if so, I've never heard of that before. It would always be about handling, or maximizing grip where you want it (corners or straights) and some balance thereof
But do you achieve the +-5° IMO temp in Z4 GT3 ?? If not then i dont think i wanna do it. The guy who reply me in AC forum also mention he cant get it work in X-Bow as well.Try Z4 GT3. Maybe just those road tyres aren't meant to build up heat like the race tyres.
I guess too high or too low temp are bad or "side effect" like the way you call it but every tyre type has its own best working temp range for best working condition & thats not side effect.
At least thats what i learn after read all those setup guide.
So according to Mr. @Oemie I should be fine driving 1 hour stints in endurance cars with the same camber settings as for hotlaps? That is far from the truth dude.

By the way I actually even happier if this +-5° IMO temp thing actually is not necessary in AC, simpler setup always better for me, less headache
"That is, temperature is a side effect. It is not the desired behavior or the reason why you'd adjust a camber or toe setting"Well, no, of course, not. And I am not quite sure how you got that out of my comment. Would you have preferred the post was three times longer, with various caveats added? For a game where hotlapping is the only option right now?
You're welcome to provide any further additions, corrections, etc. you deem necessary. Thx
Alright. Thats exactly what i need to know, so this I-O temp thing is also in AC. You the man . But if you dont mind i have 2 more further questions for this.I got 9deg I-O temp spread with no problem. Temps were crazy in every corner. Keep in mind that I don't know how to drive this car yet and I'm couple of seconds off the pace.
Actually i quite shock when he say "temperature is a side effect" because even real life car setup guide also state that getting the right tyre temperature is extremely crucial for peak performance and suddenly it become something rubbish or useless thing ??"That is, temperature is a side effect.

I might be at fault for misunderstanding your post, but this is what came first into my mind after reading it.
Alright another question is answered. Nice So i must be doing something very wrong because i dont get more than +-2° I-O even after 20 laps.Btw, I can produce I-O +-9 deg easily on my first lap, and I'm not far off pace at all. It's pretty normal. I saw a DTM video onboard, showing tire temperatures over every turn in Hockenheim, it's pretty close to how my tires behave over turns, temperature wise
Yeah i understand what you mean and in fact i somehow expect an answer like this. Anyway its great that i get what i need now, thanks for especially you & Marian Zelenka time on this subjectIt depends on the track really. But usually you set all of the things to achieve the wanted behaviour. Camber alone won't help much, when the Toe settings are eating up the tires, and so do the low pressures.

Yeah i know what you mean. Its always a game to give up one way & gain other way. I just saying tire temp is not there for nothing or some total useless side effect like how Oemie suggest. That doesnt sound rightIt's all a compromise depending on track, car and purpose and you cant totally neglect either settings completely
