Since I filled the 8 inch rim trailer tires with the mixture and they are small enough to fit in the freezer so I put a tire in the freezer for about 6 hours.
When i removed it the metal rim was showing 4°F to 5°F and the tire its self was less than 10°F.
Pressure dropped to 42psi over about a 85°F temperature change.
That was less of a pressure drop than I was expecting.
So the danger of it getting cold out side and making the tires go flat has been removed as a possibility.
