Having an excess of tire pressure, can mean that your tire is over inflated and presents less surface to the tires touching the road surface. This could also cause your car to bounce on the road, and you would have less traction and consequently less control on your vehicle. You would still hear the same muttering from the back seat.
Recommended tire pressures are generally listed on the door post of most vehicles, especially on the door post next to the driver's seat. They would also be listed in the owner's manual or sometimes in the glove compartment. The tire pressure which you find on the tire is the maximum pressure that the tire can be subjected to and is no indication of the correct tire pressure for your vehicle. The recommended tire pressure for a comfortable ride would be much lower than the tire pressure given on the side wall of the tire.
