You put air in your tyres at a petrol station. Which option is true?

  • Incorrect: If you put in 20% more than recommended, you risk the tyre exploding.
  • Incorrect: If you put in 130% more than recommended, you risk the tyre exploding.
  • Incorrect: If you put in 200% more than recommended, you risk the tyre exploding.
  • Correct: It is principally impossible to make the tyre explode.

Is it not possible for the tyre to explode?
No. To do this, you would have to pump in more than 13–15 kg (bar) – more than five times the normal tyre pressure of a private car. It is not possible to get this much air in, as a normal compressor cannot provide this type of pressure. At approximately 6–7 kg (bar) the rim may rupture – but even this pressure is difficult to reach with regular pumping devices.
” (Swedish Transport Administration)

As the question relates to a petrol station, and you are not given any specific information about the pump, you should assume that it is a regular model (i.e. not powerful enough to make the tyre explode).
