OK, for my car the recommended pressure are 29 lb/sq in front, 30 lb/sq in rear. In the 11 years I've had it, I've never seen any need to deviate from these figures - the very even tyre wear I get indicates that the manufacturer got it pretty well spot on.

The maximum pressure marked on the tyre sidewall is 44 lb/sq in. That won't affect safety?
