I'm no expert at automotive technique but I recall talking to some
tire and wheel engineers who say that inflating tires over the recommended
inflation gives better dry traction and better gas mileage but worse
wet traction, and less smooth ride.  It also makes the tire heat up faster
so decreases tire life.
