I also run 60, but I don't recommend it to people as you lose A LOT of braking grip at 60 vs 45.
Yeah, what he said!

I rarely use the brakes considering my commute and the fact that I have a regen button on my shifter that does the braking for me, but there definitely is a fine line between max mpg savings and safety that you don't want to cross just to save a few bucks. Even when I ran mine at 45 psi I did okay.
