IIRC , this is in reference to running higher pressure in the tires?
If so, I've been running 60psi in all 4 tires (vanco 8 rated at 65psi max) since brand new. Now at approx. 30,000 miles and they look to have worn perfectly even on all 4.

aren't near so hard to deal with. Steering's also easier and it didn't seem
to make much difference on bumps.  I have questions about tire wear at these
pressures. Has anyone done this long term?
