Really chancy going much thinner. Sort of like side-by-side golf carts - very necessary to handle battery/passenger weight. My "EL" is a 1 person micro-car, and it has US compatible tires coming by UPS instead of the German Continentals. I would not want to go thinner- less tread for resistance might be a chance worth taking to lower resistance (but that would mean sliding, fish-tailing acceleration.
Cheaper than my recumbent trike tires too!
