    Honestly, once a month. I was doing every two weeks when I first got Casper, but now that I see how these perform, usually once a month.

    I thump 2 or 3 times a day. Especially if hazmat.

    I must admit when it’s really hot and I’m loaded I tend to keep the highway speeds lower.......

    Keep them at recommended. Depending on who made your tire they have already been made to handle extreme weather, including climates.
