Just a a matter of information ( and I don't know whether it applies in the US, but I suspect so) in the UK ANY modification away from the manufacturer's specification can result in your vehicle insurance being invalid unless your insurance company has accepted the specific modifications in writing. So technically you could be prosecuted for driving without insurance.

Additionally, even deviating from the manufacturer's recommended tyre (tire) pressures could result in "driving an unroadworthy vehicle" which could result in invalid insurance or prosecution should you have an accident in which the tyre (tire) pressures were deemed to have been a contributory factor.

In the increasingly litigious world we live in, I would think carefully about any modification away from standard.
