Can a tire explode from Over-inflation?
DW took her car into the body shop this morning...again...rear ended in the rain while stopped at a light...drivers in this town are terrible, but I digress.... So she gets a min-van rental from on...

I wonder. How long had she been driving the van? A hot tire will have a much higher psi than a cold tire. so if the tire were at 35 psi cold. Could they be at 55 psi hot???
We are told to check the tire cold. Airing up a hot tire to the cold psi, will make it have low psi.
Just a thought.
PSI wont go up by 20 between cold/hot. Maybe 5-6PSI at best.
Max PSI stated on tires is always a COLD figure.
