It really depends on a lot of factors. Once I had a 35psi tire "blow up" on 45 psi ... and it was the spare. (It didn't blow up - it sort of quietly disintegrated over a matter of about 10 minutes.)
usually a tire is OK at twice its rated pressure - but remember, fast running and/or low pressure can cause quite a rise in the pressure of a tire. I've measured 75 in a 45 psi tire after a long run.

What does the PSI in tire pressure tell you?
Inaccurate pressure can cause poor mileage, uneven tire wear, or a tire blow-out. To prevent these events from happening it is important to maintain proper tire pressure.
What causes a tire to blow?
There are several things that can cause a tire to blow. -you can run over a piece of road debris or a sharp rock that'll cut the tire bad enough to blow -sheer mileage can cause the tire to wear through to the casing, at which point it'll have lost a lot of strength and may blow at any moment. - poor wheel alignment can cause the tire to wear through to the casing, at which point it'll have lost a lot of strength and may blow at any moment - low pressure can cause the tire to heat up, which makes the rubber softer and the tire weaker which can cause it to blow - heavy load can cause the tire to heat up, which makes the rubber softer and the tire weaker which can cause it to blow overinflation can cause it to blow just like when a balloon pops.
Can cold weather cause low tire pressure?
yes it can cause low tire pressure
If t oo much air in tire - service engine light on?
Tire pressure will not cause a check engine light.
Would an unbalanced tire cause it to loose pressure?
NoThis can:Ruin the tireThe low tire pressure can damage the tire and cause it to loose its balance and shake going down the road.
How do particles inside a car tire cause pressure on the tire?
they hit the walls/side of the tyre and that builds pressure
What does tire pressure mean in a bicycle?
how much air is in the tire
Will incorrect tire inflation cause tire wear?
Yes. Low pressure will cause edge wear. Over inflation will cause center wear.
In what circumstances would a tire pressure monitoring system produce a warning?
A tire pressure monitoring system may produce a warning if the tire pressure is too high or too low. High pressure may cause the tire to explode or fail in hot temperature. Low tire pressure causes the tire to break down more easily.
Can over-inflation cause tire slipping?
Severe overinflation can blow a tire off the rim, but unless that happens underinflation is a far more reason for tire slippage.
Abbreviation used to denote tire pressure?
PSI is the abbreviation used to denote tire pressure. Tire pressure refers to how much air should be inflated into a car's tires.
Does the spare tire on the 2012 Truck also cause the tire light to come on?
Depending on the make and model, maybe. Some vehicles do have a tire pressure sensor in the spare to monitor its pressure.
