Default tire pressure

What is the best tire inflation pressure for 2007 RX350 with Michelin 18
inch tires?

Although the door stickers say 30PSI, dealer says to put in at least 35PSI.
Only have 800 miles on car.

When I worked for an automaker, I had the privilege of driving well over 100
new cars, keeping around 60 of them for at least 6,000 miles.

I've found that tread life will be extended by inflating tires about 5 PSI
over the automaker's recommended tire pressure, with the tradeoff being a
slightly harsher ride.

Default 30-35

Between 30-35...That will be enough to carry your auto body parts and heavy luggages.
