I do not understand your question. You air your tires up to the exact PSI listed in your owner's manual and on the driver's door post.
Too much air pressure in the tires will decrease the amount of tread on the pavement and give you less surface to brake with. The tires will be harder and tend to slide more.

Braking distance changes with the weather?
in rain, snow or ice your tires have much less traction, and therefore need more braking distance.
Does the BMW X5 have a limited slip differential?
No, the X5 uses automatic differential braking, which sends power to the tires that have grip by individually braking the tires that don't.
Why are good tires essential for vehicle control?
Everything you do with a car goes thru the tires, braking, acceleration and handling.
Can bald tires affect abs system?
Bald tires can effect anything concerning braking. You will not stop as quickly with bald tires as with tires with tread period. No matter if you have ABS or not.
When driving fifty miles per hours how far will it take you to stop?
On dry, level pavement, with decent tires? About 120 feet. Many things affect this calculation. With worn tires the distance can increase to 210 feet. Dirt roads require longer braking distances than pavement. Ice can increase the braking distance by hundreds of feet. Braking down a hill, depending upon the slope, can double the braking distance, whereas braking up hill can halve that distance. If you lock the tires, you typically increase the braking distance. You can reduce the distance by pumping the brakes. Anti-lock brakes allow the tires to slip, which decreases the braking distance. Extra weight in the vehicle increases the braking distance. Refer to the link below for calculating the braking distance at different speeds with different tire wear on dry, level pavement.
How much does your average car tire weigh?
depends on how much air in tires
How much air do you need to put in your tires?
44 psi
What things can affect braking distance?
Things that affect braking distance consist of the following factors: * speed at which you're travelling * weight of the car * road conditions * braking efficiency * friction between the road surface and your tires Things that affect braking distance consist of the following factors: * speed at which you're travelling * weight of the car * road conditions * braking efficiency * friction between the road surface and your tires
What are the disadvantages of air braking system?
Run out of air
How much air is required in the tires?
Depends on the vehicle and type of tire.
What causes tires to bald in the middle?
too much air in the tire
Where does the wasted energy from a car go?
Mostly out your radiator in the form of heat, and from braking, which heats up your brake pads. A few new cars are featuring regenerative braking to recoup that lost energy from braking. Tires also generate a lot of heat during use. Some additional energy dissipates as noise, which generates heat in the air as it travels through and fades.
