What ever the maximum cold pressure printed on the sidewall is the correct pressure, unless your wheels are not rated for that high of pressure.

Thats not how it works.
The tire is rated for 4480# per tire at 110 psig. If you are not carrying 4480# per tire you are over inflated.
Edit
The 4480# per tire is just a number...i dont rmember what the exact capacity is.
That's how it works on paper in reality ST tires are notoriously cheap. Until I went to the top of the line tire like a Sailun. I had blow out issues. I want maximum capability and maximum margin therefore I air my tires to max. pressure.
I understand it is possible to over inflate your tires however my wear patterns are fine.
Trying to dial in load to tire pressure is pointless. We know the tires do not carry the same weight because the RV is not balanced that way.
Why bother filling the tires to some lower pressure in an effort to have pressure match load. If the load on each tire is different the pressure in each tire should be different as well if you truly wanted to match load to pressure.
I avoid all that nonsense and air to max pressure in order to get maximum capability and margin. Why derate the tire by lowering the air pressure? If I wanted a less capable tire I would have purchased some el cheapo vs. buying a Sailun and reducing the pressure to less capable ratings.
3 years at max. pressure so far no issues.
