Background
Wanted to buy a wheelset that I could swap between my gravel grinder and MTB. Found a decent deal on Stan's Valor carbon wheelset but now I'm confused about supported PSI's between tires and rims.
Details
The Stan's Valor wheelset has a maximum 38PSI rating on 2.1" tires.
I was planning to mount my Maxxis Re-Fuse 29x40c tubeless tires which have a 50PSI minimum and 75PSI maximum tire pressure range.
Can I safely exceed the 38PSI Valor wheelset rating on a 40C tire?
I'm about 200lbs geared up if that matters.
