Narrative:
While reviewing logbook for aircraft xyz, noticed PIREP xy page abcyxy. The signoff to reinflate tire is contrary to general maintenance manual procedures. The PIREP states that the tire was a 150 psi. At 150 psi, the tire should have been removed and replaced. I made a write-up on today's paperwork to have the tire removed for safety purposes.
