Wow, they shouldn’t be that hot after driving. That’s hot enough to turn water into steam. I would check to make sure you don’t have a stuck brake caliper. Notice a lack of power or reduced mpg from the drag? If a bearing was dying, you’d hear it and it would sound like a weed whacker. Sticking calipers is common enough on KK’s to make me suspect that.
