Then you would be very wrong. The Nitto NT555 G2 tire has a max pressure of 50psi. To put 46 psi as a starting point would be a very bad idea.
Generally speaking, a good starting point is 1 psi per 100 pounds of total vehicle weight.
I was just thinking that tread temps would help you help you dial that in. But maybe that's just a bit OCD.
