i wouldnt. 60psi was max on mine. because the more you force it, the more likely it is going to leak out from valve steam, seal, etc. i always have compressor in my car just as a backup. i was taught: 3 is 2 -- 2 is 1 -- and 1 is none.

Bump.

Just had to put my spare tire on and it was at 13psi.

Just a reminder to check spare tire pressure especially since a holiday weekend is coming up.
