yes the 35 psi is what you should go with.

No, go with what it says on the tire, unless the original tire load ratings are the same. If it’s just you in the vehicle, I’d normally go 6 PSI under max.

Use what your door label says, 35 psi. The max on the tire is just the limit of the tire, tires also list maximum load capacity, if you multiply that number by 4 you end up a weight that is double or more what your vehicle weighs, but if for some strange reason your vehicle weight equaled the maximum load capacity of the tires, you would use the maximum inflation pressure.

Go with the 35 and you will be fine.

Yea stick with the rating on the door panel unless you are adding significant weight to the vehicle. Might I add that there are so many ppl that go by the psi on the tire and are very wrong, all it does is cause abnormal tread pattern wear and voids whatever warranty you originally had
