If you have a good, quality tire, I have to agree with Treb -- beyond max psi can be a worthy mod without negative effects. I have about 30K miles on a set of Michelin MXV4+ tires that have consistently run 50 psi+ over the entire life of the tires. I can go take a picture of them to show absolutely normal wear if requested

That's what this Site is all about. Keep us posted if you find that high FE replacement vehicle.
