First of all, I never said my IR thermometer was as good as a pyrometer with a needle, it is just much better than the back of your hand on the tire. Used correctly, it is very accurate, and it will tell you a lot about what is going on (but not as good as anything that probes into the tire).

For me, I choose chalk, a good tire gauge, and my IR thermometer. At my level (non-racing), this is plenty.
