    Default Recomended tire pressures in TIS manual??

    I ran across the following recomended NORMAL LOAD tire pressures for 1991 BMW e34s in the TIS.

    525i 26f 32r
    535i 29f 35r
    m5 38f 41r

    This is substantually different than the door sticker (MAX load) and what most people seem to run. I know that if I run higher pressures such 34 front & 37 rear the ride is rather rough, especially over tar strips and bridge edges.

    Just my observation. Wonder what the best pressure is for tire life, comfort and handling?
