2009 E350 Sport - Tire Pressure

I recently installed Sumitomo HTR Z III on my 2009 E350, I've messed around with tire pressure some to find a feel I like, but wondered if I should stick with the recommended pressure listed on the car (28/33) or is that only for the OEM tires (Michelin Pilot HX MXM4). Thank you.

No flame, but that has an analogy similar to this.

But a shirt/pants at Dillards in your size. Now go to Nieman, or similar and buy a shirt/pants. Did the size change?

Both cheapo gauges 31/35 (Accu-Gage) or 33/37 (Slime). I'm going to bump it up higher and try that too...I know that will help gas mileage. Assuming the Accu-Gage is the better gauge I like the 31/35 better then recommended, I find it pulls less to the left. Funny it was really warm here yesterday (got above 80F) and the tires were really nice, no pulling or wandering, would have been nice to be up in the mountains really pushing the car, do that here and blue lights come on. I don't plan on driving when it is cold and icy/snowy so I went with this summer tire. Looking forward to driving hard when it is warm and I can get some time to go on trips.
I mainly posted this thread to see if maybe I could get the best performance and wear and see if anyone had some first hand experience.
