You're going to have some hot tires... what's your target presure?

if you start at 20-22 you will get close to the recommended hot pressures of just under 30. Keep checking and adjusting and you'll figure it out.

that rear camber looks a bit excessive? Even the front may be a bit much, braking can suffer.
