Very harsh drive

My 996 has 19's and I recently started a post about cupped tires and noise. On the advice of another member I raised the rear pressure to 40 and the fronts to 36. Today I added more air and made the rears 42 and the fronts 37. The car really does ride much more solid, no more BANGING when I hit a bump in the road and best of all the tire noise is down by probably 50%. I am amazed on the impact this has had.
My car had 17's on it until December and I had the pressure set the same way I did with the 17's and that was all wrong for the 19's.

Nice hour long drive in town and on the highway. Plenty of bumps and smooth roads along the way and I liked the feel and response. Also first time I've driven this car in a spirited way, she really responds @3-3.5k rpm gear shifts. In love all over again
