Yeah, just keep pumping.

Got to keep them extra full, "just in case"

Can’t they just set an inflator to something average, like 35 psi for all rental cars?

Sounds great, if their rental is running on 28mm road bicycle tires (maybe 32mm?) .

So are they ready to explode or are these very different tires from the ones I run on my cars?

Should’ve popped.

Probably somebody using a broken or inaccurate gauge at a gas station air pump.

It’s so you can transfer the pressure to the spare in case it’s flat and still have two functional tires.

This is the pressure with three tons o f granite in the backseat, right?

Maybe, but the driver's side was 75.

Tire pressure remains constant regardless of payload. The more weight on the tire, the more surface area is squished onto the pavement for a given PSI.

This sounds about right for a rental car

Last time I got a rental I tested the tires before leaving 65psi. Wtf. Should have been in the low 30s.

I think the tires on my Transit are rated for 2800lbs load each and door sticker says inflate to 80 psi.

I believe that means you could load up with a few tons of gravel. You should test my theory.

Did Hunter S Thompson rent that car beforehand?
