Is it true that police, as somewhat standard practice, run their tires @ around 45psi? And for that reason, some of the HE tires didn't pass their safety/cornering/stopping tests because the combination of the different compound and higher pressure made them not so good for a robust chase scenario? Do they deal with uneven wear issues or just replace tires more often? It would seem a hassle for them to 'break in' all their tires.
