GM's recommended psi is for max load, I rarely carry much weight. When I am getting a load of top soil or mulch I just pump them up.

Plus I like how it annoys Onstar that thinks my air pressure is low
LOL. I run 30 psi under the recommended rear pressure in my HD. I figure that the front axle carries 4,000lbs. on 50psi, so the rear can carry the 3,000lbs. empty weight on 50 as well. (Recommend pressure is 80!)

Tire wear is WAY better this way, too.
