A 20,000-pound vehicle typically exerts a ground pressure on pavement ranging from 65 to 100 PSI (pounds per square inch). This is because a tire's ground pressure directly mirrors its internal air pressure. Heavier vehicles do not necessarily increase PSI; instead, the tire’s contact patch expands to distribute the extra weight .


Not enough PSI to damage thick flexible plastic coating....

The scientific illiteracy here is phenomenal...
It's armored tires are quite a bit more ridged that your typical tire.
