Depends what you call hard. The 235/45R17 is 29-32psi on the placard for the fronts. A shop once filled these to 45 and the ride was just horrible. It would have worn the centers out and killed the rears in no time with the IRS as the tire rode much more on it's inner shoulder.
The shop then argued (saved face perhaps) in telling me this was best. Rubbish. The steering was noticeably lighter indicating less contact with the road as the front tires rode more on their centers.
I'll always choose the advice of the car and tire engineers who write the placards over any tire fitter.
No surprise that my tires wear evenly down the the RW indicators.
