When it comes to tires there is nothing particularly unusual about what Tesla is doing. The recommended tire pressure is just that. A recommendation. It is clearly not a rule because if it was, it would be different for every combo they sell. It goes without saying that a Model 3 P on 20" wheels and summer high performance tires is going to need completely different tire pressure to a car running 18" Michelin all seasons. The bottom line is find something that works for you based on your driving style, pattern and preferences. Understand that there is no "correct" pressure, only what works for you. Every pressure is going to be a compromise between NVH, performance and longevity. Personally I run 38psi but if I'm taking a long road trip I will increase to 44 to maximize range.
