Watch your tire wear and if you star seeing a little more wear on the outside edges of the tread, increase it to 85 for a better tread contact patch. Always check the manufacturers recommendations on the sidewall of the tire and do not exceed their pressures. The labels by your seat are based on "Engineering Judgment" and are based on ride and not on tire wear/manufacturers recommendations. Just ask the Ford Explorer engineers who recommended too low of a pressure which caused a lot of blowouts and deaths due to under-inflated tires.
