I know, this thread is ten years old, but I noticed   
   something earlier in the conversation, and is   
   something I have personally experienced:   
      
   What if the O.P. Van's recommended cold   
   pressure was EQUAL to the max cold pressure   
   stamped on the tire?  Same for a 1981 Buick   
   mid-size(Century I think), I drove while in   
   college.  Both the recommended pressure   
   on the car, and the maximum cold pressure   
   on any tires I put on it at the time - OEM size   
   and speed rating - 35psi.   lt happens,   
   probably more then than it ever would   
   nowadays, with passenger tire max cold   
   pressures minimum 44psi.   
      
   What do so in such scenario?
