[T3] Tires for my squareback


<x-flowed>In debugging my windshield washer, I found that my spare tire was a bit on the crumbly side.
I'm looking to replace the ancient bias tire, but I had a few questions before I did so.


My 165R15 radials on the car have a max inflation of 32psi. So does Mr. Crusty Spare.
Since I need to pump the tire up to like 38 or 40psi to get the washer valve to work, isn't exceeding the tire's max a very bad thing?


If so, does anyone know of particular brands and models of tires available in 165R15 that have a higher max inflation rating?
Since I'm forced to special order this size tire anyway, I'd like to get one that isn't getting overinflated constantly if I can help it.


Thanks
