    i have put heat into tires by running them on a street car.

    run two tires up front and do relatively slow speed tight turns.........

    i would be surprised if that street method gets the tires up to a temp that is useful. have you measured what temp you get them up to that way? (probe type, not ir, pyrometer).

    I once measured the temps on my street car after a fairly long drive and they were no where near temps I get at the track. (I also wasn't trying to get heat in them, but I don't think it would make a huge difference)
