i always put mine to 32 p.s.i.
Follow the Manufacturer's specifications, they spend a lot of money designing every aspect of their cars.
I always do mine to the stated psi on the label inside the car
2 psi won't make much difference

+0.0453 mpg.

At 30mpg, that would be approx 0.01 miles extra (or 5.68 yards)
