If any lower it's the same effect as hitting the rim of the wheel with a sledgehammer, especially if it has a low profile tyre. I recently saw an unhappy man on the phone by a stranded Aston Martin (heavy lump of a V12 atop rubber banded alloys), presumably seeking help about a flat tyre on a distorted front wheel rim. (Curiously the recommended front pressure on a DB9 is apparently a mere 36psi - on my Audi W12, approx two Americans heavier, it is 42psi.)
