The vast majority of wheel/tyre heat is generated due to the heat dissipated when braking.

Also due to the latent effects the maximum temperature of the air in the tyre is not achieved until the a/c is parked up on stand (assuming a normal landing of course )

The temperature increase on landing would be influenced by the amount of compression, which as has been stated is not that large.
