There is a debate whether to go with the PSI indicated in the manual or to go by the tire manufacturers recommended PSI. Many people choose to go to the max PSI rated for their tire for performance reasons and swear they have no issues. A higher tire pressure seems to favour performance as evidenced in the "high speed" table. Ultimately it is up you and the load you are carrying, the tables do form a good basis for you to start with.
