Ok, so supposedly these tires wore the way they did using the recommend psig:

Try Wayne's accord with 100,000+ miles on the original tires and completely even treadwear.
This is what happens when you use Toyota's recommended pressure for the Prius. I've seen similar results on my Civic at Honda's specified pressure.
The pressure you should use is the sidewall rating: 44 psi in most cases. If you want to go higher, you can, but we don't officially recommend it. |
Check this out about load and psi:

Again, as Paul has stated, "ECO" we are dealing with the ECO side here. I am trying to figure out how long we can make these tires last and what is the best psig to make that happen. Everything is within reason of course.
