Excellent link. I saved that. Interesting, according to the table an page 8, 35-36 psi is a MINIMUM pressure for maximum load (SL tires). In other words, tire maximum load can be handled between 35 (or 36) and 44 (or 51) psi. Using that logic, the car manufacturer recommended tire pressure is a MINIMUM pressure rather than exact pressure for that particular load and tire size and type. Now, it makes more sense.
