I run mine @35psi per Fords recommendation. It is more stable and gets the best mileage when running what the manufacturer recommends.

Well mine says 29 front 32 rear, but with the 29 in front the tires look like they are going flat.

I believe that the minimum pressures indicated for "extra" load tires are based on each tire's rated load. Since a given tire's load rating is based almost entirely on the pressure which it can accomodate, if an "extra" load tire is loaded only to the "standard" load, it does not require the additional pressure.

I guess I would go a few pounds heavier just to minimize flexing of these heavier wall tires.
