In our heavier cars, I would recommend a tire pressure a bit higher than the standard recommendation. Set it to 36 psi all round and then adjust up and down only by 1 psi (certainly no more than 2 psi) to compensate for wear. Use a tread depth gauge regularly and decide whether to go up or down.
This 36 psi is the pressure value that is used for tire load tests (the tire manufacturer does this) per the standards, and it will give you an optimal outcome.
Some important things to be aware of:
The tire pressure must be measured cold. Ideally inside a garage in the morning ... even letting the sun warm the tire can increase the pressure a bit, let alone driving a mile or two, which could increase the pressure by 1 to 3 psi depending on speed and distance. If tires are already warmed, then setting to 36 psi will make it too low overall.
Remember to measure every other week or so - pressures can change (usually drop due to normal leaks) by about 0.5 to 1 psi in that period - more often if the weather temperatures change a lot. If you set it to less than 36 psi normally, check more often!
Finally, the car TPMS is really just for making sure that the pressure is not
way off. A good gauge is an essential tool. Personally, I use an Accupressure Racing Gauge (available at Amazon) with 0.1 psi resolution. It's accuracy is +/- 0.5 psi, but the relative 0.1 resolution allow me to set everything to within the same 0.1 to 0.2 psi difference on all four tires.
Yes, this is a bit overkill, but not a bad investment to extend the longevity as well as better load capacity safety.
If I buy a new model tire, I learn the correct value for it in time (by monitoring the tread depth) ... It is not surprising that I seem to get the most even wear around 35 psi, almost no matter what the brand or model!
I set it to 36 psi whenever I measure, so that the normal 1 psi drop in the 2 to 3 weeks to the next check is not an issue.
