Not sure why anyone wants to run up at 40psi or beyond?? Tyre wear can get really bad, and you end up with a hard ride - especially with low profile tyres in the 21" and 22".
Also, running tyres at high psi also makes you more susceptible to picking up nails/screws or anything else that can give you a puncture.

The only time I run higher is when I do long towing trips, and by higher I mean 36/38-39, still dont go into the 40s.
Alignment is OK and within specs. Not a camber issue. Pressure 35/37
