We run a lot of recaps. They're not like the old ones used to be. They reuse our Micheline casings. Can't remember the last time one lost a cap.
He's in arizona. I'm not sure your temp. ranges are remotely similar.
I do know a guy that gets his own casings capped and gets one piece caps, he says those don't separate as bad and he gets decent life. If you're springing for michelin, you better get a cap or two out of them also with what they cost new.
