Default 2004 tire pressure on standard tires

My fiance has an A4 that came standard with 235/45HR17 Eagle RS-A's. When I checked the tire pressure the dealer put them at all four were at 41psi cold. She usually drives the car alone, with little bagage. Per the door placard the tire pressures should be 30psi cold for all four. I dropped the press in all the tires, but now she says the tires squeal much more often than before. Am I missing something? Should I put the pressure back to where it was?

Any words from experience would be much apriciated.

Default Run the pressures that are listed on the placquard...those are there for a reason and .....

if you have a tire go bad, you will have a hard time getting them to replace it if you run pressures that are higher than the recommended levels.
