Over inflating a tire
My 195/65-15 Michelin Energy MXV4s rollover all the time whenever I auto-x
(0+ camber up front). It states on the sidewall that I cannot put more than 44PSI, but do you think I can get away with, let's say 48-50PSI for my front tires, or could they pop?

your problem is sidewall height. 65 series tires are like snow-tire aspect ratio.
adding more air will decrease traction and performance as well
you need better tires

YMMV, but I used to run Hoosiers at 65psi in the rear of my WRX to make it rotate on autox courses. Ran up to 72psi on my stock Bridgestone RE92s to make it rotate. My tires didn't explode, though that's not to say yours won't for some reason.

duh!
I'm trying to stay on bad tires as loooong as possible, and I'll even pay the $32 to have them remounted side to side so I can get more out of them. Ever since I switched back to these wheels/tires from 225/40-18 ES100s, I've found that I'm now actually learning how to drive...
