Running 38psi on new tires as opposed to 42psi on warn out ones is alright.

So look out for that tire break in if you have an electric vehicle you use to where you require most of its range.

Possible counter measure, buy 1 or 2 at a time like I did. The tire dealership will hate you if you buy 1 at a time and replace all 4 like that. But if you can just get it out of the way and buy at least 2 at a time.
Or if there is a discount on a four tire buy, then buy all four and only mount one new tire per break in period. If it's 400 miles do that. If a week of normal riding seems good then go with that schedule.
