Higher pressure makes the tire more likely to ride over something than sink onto it. Also, a good firm tire is better under wet conditions, because it can better channel water than hydroplane on the surface like a sloppy tire would. But I would never ever go over the max pressure listed on the sidewall. I just imagine hearing a tire design engineer's comments on the subject.
