A tire's pressure says it's max cap is 44 pounds per square inch (psi). the car's manual states recommended tire pressure (front tires at 32psi, rear at 29psi).

To place them at the car's recommended pressure, the tires look a bit squatty. One person even made the effort to warn my wife of them.
However, I thought that the car's recommended tire pressure had precedence over what the maximum pressure the tire could withstand.
So is it alright to look squatty then?

By the way, I am not sure on how to spell squatty. You get the idea, however.
