Depends what you're doing - if it's just cruising around they'll be fine. If you're doing 10ft airs then perhaps not.

There is a PSI limit which is suppsed to stop the tyre popping off the rims. It's proboably best you don't exceed it- it's supposed to be 40psi max although recently I've run them with 60psi when cruising and some light(ish) track use - had no problems (I'm about 13 stone).
