run mine at 33 F and 36 R as per the book.
Prefer the ride it gives at these pressures.
Some run few pounds higher, but they are too firm ride wise IMHO.

I run mine at 2.5 front and 2.7 rear (36 and 39 in 'old money' )
Basically around 0.2 bar higher than 'normal' as I feel they are too low otherwise - they don't seem to 'sit properly' with the factory recommended pressures in.
Haven't really noticed the ride being too firm - maybe I'll try and lower them back down this week and see how it works 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE AutoBuckingham Blue 2007 Golf GT DSG

Running my AT2's at 34 and 37 as they seemed a bit squashed at std pressure, however they are oversize at 255/70/17 so that may have an influence.2020 BMW X1 18d XDrive X-Line Auto

I have these tyres on 18" rims for aprox 30,000 kms and run them at 40 and 45 lbs (fr/rr). They have 8 mm tread depth at WOF/MOT check last week. I do mainly road miles at the moment. They are fine at this pressure - probaly better than the OME Wranglers and 19" rims it came with.
I may drop the pressures a bit for winter driving on ski area gravel roads, but too low and there is a real risk of sidewall cuts from sharp stones.
I have had a realignment to cure the right rear wheel misalignment problem (found out about that the hard way) and recently a LR tech commented that the 4 tyres were the most evenly worn of the D3's he had worked on.
I might try 5 lbs less all round on my next road trip to satisfy my curiosity about comfort vs handling vs ecnomy.
