Glad to hear you love the Hankooks. I've been using them on my own Buses
and Vanagons for over 15 years and can't say enough positive things about
them.
The rating on the sidewall is the tire's MAXIMUM pressure, not its
recommended one. The recommended inflation is vehicle-specific (provided,
of course, that it does not exceed the capacity of the tire, in which
case the tire would be unsuitable for the vehicle). So you should stay
roughly around the vehicle's recommended tire pressure as listed on the
door jamb sticker (or firewall or bulkhead sticker on an earlier Bus).
You didn't mention your year, and the recommended inflation does vary
plus or minus about 5 psi on various years, but it will probably be upper
30's in the front and mid to upper 40's in the rear.
