When it's not on the car, it gets as hot as the temperature of the air surrounding it. (But I bet you already knew that. )

When it's on the car, it depends on how hard you drive and how much you use the brakes. In normal street and highway driving, it will get somewhat warmer. Go take a drive, then feel the temperature of your tire tread and your lug nuts and you'll find that they are a bit warmer than the outside temperature. If you drive on the racetrack, or if you drive on a country or mountain road and use your brakes a lot more than normal, they can get VERY hot, even too hot to touch.

Then I'm not sure of the answer.

You could take a pyrometer with you (or find someone there with one) and measure for yourself...
