When the tyre pressure of your lorry is higher than recommended, it will do more damage to the vehicle's suspension parts. This is because excessive pressure reduces the tyres' contact area with the road surface, which reduces grip and increases vibration and the effect of bumps in the road. These extra conditions put more strain on the suspension parts, which can lead to early wear and a higher risk of damage to the vehicle.
