Hey, I'm 49 and I'm still learning something new everyday.
PRESSURES ON THE SIDES OF TIRES ARE MAX PRESSURES FOR THE TIRE NOT THE PRESSURES YOU SHOULD USE!!!! Sorry for yelling but you should not run max pressures. Always run the pressures form the owner's manual. If you have special circumstances adjust them from owner's manual recommendations. But always start with the owner's manual recommendations and go from there.
