What is highest PSI in tires you have used?

Enlighten us poor fools for which the gub-ment are protecting hour sefs frum us-sulfs.

There is likely no specific data on over inflation, just like there is no specific data on under inflation...however, the lack of numbers should not alleviate one of the responsibility of using ones brain when determining a good idea vs. a bad one. There are no positives(outside of a race track) for running dangerously high tire pressure, and there is no published data available to back your claims that it's a good idea.

You're fighting physics and common sense, neither battle will end in victory.

NHTSA's current crash files do not contain any direct evidence that points to low tire pressure(or high pressure) as the cause of any particular crash. (19) However, this lack of data does not imply that low tire pressure(or high pressure) does not cause or contribute to any crashes. The agency believes that it simply reflects the fact that measurements of tire pressure are not among the vehicle information included in the crash reports received by the agency and placed in its crash data bases. (20)

The only tire-related data element in the agency's crash databases is "flat tire or blowout." However, even in crashes for which a flat tire or blowout is reported, crash investigators cannot tell whether low(or high) tire pressure contributed to the tire failure.

The agency examined its crash files to gather information on tire-related problems that resulted in crashes. The NASS-CDS has trained investigators who collect data on a sample of tow-away crashes around the United States. These data can be weighted to generate national estimates.

The NASS-CDS General Vehicle Form contains a value indicating vehicle loss of control due to a blowout or flat tire. This value is used only when a vehicle's tire went flat, causing a loss of control of the vehicle and a crash. The value is not used for cases in which one or more of a vehicle's tires were under-inflated, preventing the vehicle from performing as well as it could have in an emergency situation.

Somebody had to input common sense into this thread, so random people searching the net don't see this thread and thinks it's a good idea to copy you folks.
