The pressure on the tire sidewall is the max pressure for the maximum load the tire is rated for by the manufacturer. This max load per tire is often well in excess of the vehicle weight. Modern tire construction has reduced the inner wear/outer wear due to pressures, and to some degree fuel economy. I would run pressure listed on the door jamb +. I have always figured that the manufacturers recommended pressure is to some degree based on ride quality and would be less than the optimal for handling.
I run 2-6# greater and get very good even wear.
