The max pressure on the Gatorskins is 95. I ran the 28s at 80-85 with no issues. The reason I wanted to go with a wider tire was to run a lower pressure and smooth out the ride. I'll give it a shot, but running these at 95 would likely negate the point of the wider tires...
It sounds like I should just go back to the 28s and call it a day...
A fatter tire should still be a bit more forgiving than a thinner tire at the same pressure. There is a bit more room to accomodate the displaced air inside the fatter tire, so that absorbs a bit more of the jolt as you go over a bump.
