You don't entirely lose power brakes when EOC, there's a check valve going to the brake booster. You typically get 6-8 solid hard stops before the vacuum assist starts to fade, and it's gradual, so you can feel it and bump start the engine.

Thanks Ecky, that's good to know, I assumed that I would only get like 1-2 good brakes before I lost power, but I definitely will have to try it out. I'd love to install a killswitch for EOC, but lack the willingness to mess with any wiring in the car.
I've thought about trying 40psi with these tires, but I'm going to wait until I put my lightweight tires on sometime in the next month.
