Brakes transfer heat into the wheels and tires too. That is why the fronts are warmer than the rears, fronts do more work when stopping. Wheels/tires will warm with use fbut I'm sure most of that front wheel temp is from the brakes. This could be useful to see if brakes are dragging more than the rest...
