My guess is the new TP rec'd is a euro reg and/or liability deal:
could be RFT related or, more simply that most very high
continual speed, requires TP to up to snuff, eg higher than
normal, as opposed to underinflated, which will quickly induce
sidewall flex, tread flex, more heat and kaboom, potentially.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, there are few niches in the
US of A, where one can run a car at 100+ for any length of
time...thus, it's Autobahn CYA, imo.

MrGruber, ya'll taking this stuff you read a tad too much to
heart, imo. Common sense prevails and it doesn't mean a
wit, imo.

Higher loads, as in your X is packed for a trip: more air.
Normal driving around: 32 or, whatever the damn sticker
says.
Keep 'em pumped to what you like.
