Maybe they didn't teach you that at tire tech school...eh?

Here, how about this...


"big dave" is too selfish to admit the insignificant gains he may realize in fuel economy pale in comparison to the danger he places himself and those around him in.


ETA: You're only running 50 PSI... I've already said the people running 50 are not likely to have any problem, it's the 15+ psi that worries me...so stop arguing with me.

I run 32 psi, and I just checked the mpg at my last fill-up (40.1 mpg) ...all in town driving.

I bet these guys that run 60 psi don't tell their auto insurance agent, the guy mounting their tires, the cops, the guys at the dealership, etc, but they're sure eager to stand high on the soapbox here ...

You still don't know how to use the word correctly. I think the word that would be more proper to use in your rant is "weckless".

And that would an opinion, not a fact, since I have been able to safely drive on 50psi for a number of months without any safety issues.

Just because you can spell a word and look up the words meaning, doesn't mean you know how to use it correctly. Its hard to take someone seriously when they mangle the English language!

Seriously? That's what you're going with? I'm embarrassed for you.

I have a strong impression you are embarrassed enough before you ever clear the bathroom in the morning....assuming...and I know its a real stretch....that you actually use the bathroom in the morning!

Now go change some tires and keep America rolling!

read my sigline...I keep America shooting now, not to mention the other companies I own. My bathroom is probably bigger than your whole house, and it didn't get that way by overinflating my tires. ;)
