Hmm, I think I ran 30psi on the track... its probably going to be higher than that for DD... it should say on the tire what the max is, but DO NOT put it to the max.

My standard advice is to start out using the pressures recommended by the car manufacturer in the car's owner's manual.
Then after you drive on them that way, you can adjust upwards or downwards from there as needed to adjust for handling, uneven tire treadwear, etc.

I agree that you should start at the vehicle manufacturer's recommendation. You shouldn't need to stray to far from that to get your preferred ride/performance. Remember, running too high or low pressure will result in uneven wear on the tire.
