Shouldn't tire wear be a factor as well?
For instance the 4 tires on my jeep are about 1000 dollars a set.
I know that on other all terrain tires over inflation
will grind the center away...

You don't know that, you think that. It's not true. Bias ply tires could do this but steel belted radials do not. Steel belts and carcass design help to keep the tread patch flat. Many ecomodders have shown their tires after years of service at high pressure without the centre wearing out first. Higher pressure increases tread life.
