Somebody else asked about weight distribution.
As far as air pressure, the technical answer is "it depends on how much load the tire is carrying"....
The Bicycle Quarterly "15% drop" figure takes the individual tire load into account, although you may need a second person's help with doing that correctly.
I generally always inflate my tires always enough, but not too much.
Most of the time.
