A good friend claims that he can inflate 16" truck tires to 200 psi without any damage to rim or tire. This is what gets discussed when there is nothing else to do. Any resident genius's care to comment? Tire and rim are both rated for 80 PSI.

I have to agree, was just wondering if anyone out there ever tried something that stupid.:)

Just ASKING for trouble. Not only will the ride be harsh but there is a real danger of an exploded tire. Another small problem is the excess wear along the middle of the tire tread, reducing the tire life by more than half.
