Every one has their preference on desired pressure other than the one in the manual.

A "few" have a desired tire pressure, but you asked what the "typical" tire pressure is. Typically, people use the recommended pressure. The only time you should consider varying from that is if you notice excessive center or edge wear on your tires, or if you use non-factory sizing. Even at that, many non-factory sizes run and wear perfectly at the factory pressure. I run 225-40-18's on mine and they wear perfectly at 32psi.

My recommendation would be to check wear and adjust accordingly. If the edges are wearing faster than the center, bump the pressure up a couple of lbs. If the center is wearing faster, drop it a couple. Sometimes people that drive aggressively and ride a lot of twisty roads will wear the edges faster.

No one here can give you a best answer other than "factory recommended" because some people drive differently, carry crap in their trunks all the time, or have allignment issues.

Regular rotation and allignment checks are the best way to keep your tires good along with checking the pressure at least once a month.

correct! I keep mine at 34 PSI and never had a problem. Just rotated the tires myself yesterday
