At my shop we always put 35 psi in the front tires. As for the rear if you
are not loading the truck put 32 psi.
Is the wear more on one side or the other on the tire?
It also depends on your driving style as to what the tires are wearing. But
never exceed the recomended tire pressure from the tire specs.
