TLDR : Answer Summary
In Chiang Mai, you can apply for a visa extension when you have 45 days or less left on your current entry stamp. The extension will be added to the existing expiration date, so applying early does not result in a loss of time. It is confirmed that you can extend your visa now, and experiences shared indicate that the immigration office is friendly and efficient.

As a rule up in Chiang Mai you can apply for an extension when you have 45 days or less left on your current entry stamp, and the extension is added to the expiration date you have now (so you don't lose any time going early) <- but that is controlled by what extension you're applying for too.

I need to extend another 30 day. So i think it’s alright to do it now.

shouldn't have a problem GO to the main immigration office there by the Airport and ask.
