Which improve the car not to heat the tires?

I think your question is "Which tyres improve the car and not overheat at the same time?"

It doesn't matter which supplier you sign with, except that you choose one in which you find gives you a +1 bonus in a design attribute you like.

As for tyre compounds, you have to learn to feel which tyres work in which temperatures to where they can be managed to not overheat and also to not cool down too much, such as when they begin to near the end of their life cycle.

yeah, it also depends at the tyre wear of the track. Some tracks eat more tyres than others. As Blunion mentioned, the track temperature has a huge influence of the tyre heat. Also you can control your temperature with your push level. Oh btw, if your tyres are to cool, they also dont work (so hard tyres at temperatures around 10°C also dont work)

Super softs are simply overpowered and ruin the game. There is a reason that they aren't used at every track in real life, I see teams in my league spending the entire race on them on a similar strategy that should be used with the soft tyre, and they get away with it when their tyre life must be around 15%? Street tracks should be suited to them but tracks like Belgium and Malaysia with the heat they should literally drop off after lap 3 but no. I've just lost to a 3 stopper around Nurburgring when our first stints were fairly similar on the same tyre, we were close on track then I go 11>11 softs and he does 3 stints on SS and wins comfortably, not to mention the pit lane in Germany is amongst the slowest.

Well, the life of a supersoft will depend on your tyre economy as well. A lot of people have that up at a very high level now, enabling them to run a longer stint on the supersofts.

Although, I agree, they are in need of either being slowed down or having their life shortened. While we ramped up the effects of economy attributes to help balance them with performance attributes, it obviously has knock-on effects on things like how long supersofts last.

I dont agree that they need slowed or need their life shortened, on very high wear tracks the wear rate should be that high that you cant use super soft, maybe the effects of the tyre economy are a little too overpowering as without a high rating the harder tyres are already doing the lengths of stints you would expect to see and should be lowered. The super soft tyres themselves should be able to do anything from 22-27laps at monaco, singapore and abu dhabi the same as in F1, the car setup, the temp and the number of laps teams do in qualifying result in mixed live spans of the super soft at these tracks but a brand new set is approximately 30laps

I'd really prefer not to see tyres get adjusted again in terms of power.

Instead, make the loss of temp on a tyre more significant as tyre life begins to fade, especially at 30% and lower.

Maybe increase the loss of temp on the same push level by 10-15%.

i dont think the tyre wear has to be adjusted now. Every player has the same chances. But i guess you could slow down the car, if the tyres are strongly worn.

We have already seen in the past that hard tyres can go 40 odd laps in brazil with only 32 design points in tyre ecomomy therefore the effects it has can be turned down a bit as it is just doing too good of a job on the softer tyres.
