Kid’s Tesla seemed to require a high PSI like a trailer tire. The weight is not much worse than an old Tahoe so I think the issue on Tesla tires is the very low center of gravity puts sidewall flex to the max.

I asked Copilot about Tesla tite pressure.....
The recommended tire pressure for a Tesla vehicle depends on the model, the tire size, and the tire construction. However, a general range of 40 to 45 PSI is usually recommended for most Tesla vehicles, including the Model 3, X, and S123. The tire pressure should be checked and adjusted when the tires are cold and the vehicle has been stationary for over three hours4.

The tire pressure affects the tire contact area, the tire stiffness, the tire rolling resistance, and the tire grip. These factors influence the vehicle performance, safety, reliability, and efficiency. Therefore, it is important to keep the tires inflated to the pressures shown on the tire and loading information label, which is located on the center door pillar and is visible when the driver’s door is open4.

You can also view the tire pressures on the touchscreen in the cards area on the car status display, or by touching Controls > Service. The touchscreen also displays your vehicle’s recommended cold tire pressures so you can easily determine how much to inflate your tires. You can choose whether you want to display tire pressures using Bar or PSI by touching Controls > Display > Tire Pressure. You can also view tire pressures in the Tesla mobile app5.”

Co pilot is pretty amazing
