Tire Pressure

Any thoughts on tire pressure in 1st Gen Avalons?

Toyota recommended on door jamb is 32psi for all four tires.
Max tire pressure is 44psi.

Better mileage with 40psi on all 4?
Is this safe?
How will it affect tire wear

i go with 35 psi. 40 might make the middle of your tires wear out too soon.

most tires seem to say max pressure=35 psi on the sidewall, in which case 40 would not be safe, at all. while you might get better mileage, the noise and lumpy ride would hardly be worth it?

32 works well for me (97 avy)
