Correct tire pressure for 245/30/20 & 285/25/20

Got new tires and rims and max psi is 50psi (of course that is way to much ) they are all at 32 psi (cold so probably more when warmed up) and are pretty damn hard, is this a good pressure?.... I thought they should at least be at 36 psi but didn't want to put more since they where pretty hard already lol!! I understand they have to be pretty hard since they very small sidewall. I am used to my 19" wheels but want to be sure with these.

Any suggestions to ease my mind lol!!??
