It very much depends on LOAD.
If fully loaded with 5/7 People and luggage or roofbox etc then you need to stick to upper limits on sticker. (36-40)
If you drive on your own then you can lower the pressures a bit for a comfier ride. I use 32 for everyday use on my own or with the odd passenger. I top up if going on longer trip with the family though.
