The only problem with putting max air pressure especially in newish tires is the center of the tire wears out faster.
I air up old tires to higher pressure that have been properly rotated front to back and they look like they are going to wear out on the shoulder first.
Also better tires help. The new energy saver tires with normal 34 to 36psi get the same milage as the warn out ecopia tires with 44psi.
