Well I am not as knowledgeable about the X as most on here, but if my tires say 35psi then I fill em to 35psi. The only time I would put less in is in off road conditions, and then I would come on here and ask what the best psi is for whatever conditions I'm gonna be in.

You might find with the colder weather only having 32psi in your tires causes the TPMS light to come on. Check the fine print on your actual tire for the recommended air pressure at your loading.

Mine recommend 44psi for max load but I usually keep them up to around 40psi, the ride is a bit rougher but my mpg is better than at <36.

The pressure will depend on your tire. Due to the type of tire I have, outside temp and weight of my rig I am keeping my tires at 37psi, though my tires are rated to go over 40psi. Remember, the warmer the tire gets, the more pressure develops inside. Don't fill your tire too much when it's cold, or your TPS will go off while you are driving (Note, TPS will go off if the pressure is too low or too high).
