If you are running oversize tires on the stock rims, you will have to use tire pressures much higher than the original tires used.
I beg to differ bigger tyres do not necessarily mean more pressure, it doesn,t work like that at all, my motorcycle has tyres with more volume than my mountain bike and run 34-36psi, the mountain bike runs around 50 psi,my 4x4 has even bigger tyres and runs the same amount of pressure as my bike. The only time where more pressure is needed is when carrying a load or for long distance rides where a constant high speed is used, then all you need to add is around 4 psi, any more can end up in disaster as the tyre will also go up in pressure when hot. running under inflated will result in about a 30% increase in tyre wear. The correct tyre pressures are an important and often overlooked part of a well maintained bike..
You just want to argue and cast dispersions. ...And didn't even comprehend what I wrote. How convenient for your argument that you ignored the part about stock rims, just so you can argue a point not germane.
The stock rim bead seats are narrow. Oversize tires force the seated bead width to pinch narrow, and this changes the side wall angle from bead seat to tread support, making the tire squirm laterally when using pressures that were correct for the stock size tire, or the oversize tire on a correctly matched rim width. To compensate for the lack of support, the tire pressure must be increased to make the sidewall more rigid.
This has been covered and explained in detail in prior threads quite thoroughly. But, some still prefer myth and conjecture to actual engineering and design facts.
Rave and rant on RR, as you always do. Anyone who wishes to believe you is free to do so. I won't.
I try to provide the best information I can. But, I am not responsible for lack of comprehension, or attempts to sully valid responses posted here.
