For a great many years in summer high heat I always ran my heavily loaded TT tires at the full recommended max pressure with no blow outs or flats or any problems and no bouncing trailer. Some folks like extra tho. It keeps them busy.
Cheers to good camping and fishing

FWIW, Goodyear now has a load/inflation chart for the Endurance ST.https://www.goodyearrvtires.com/pdfs/rv_inflation.pdf

Goodyear also says in their rvtires website "weighing your rv"...
*Special Considerations*
***Unless trying to resolve poor ride quality problems with an RV trailer, it is recommended that trailer tires be inflated to the pressure indicated on the sidewall of the tire. Trailer tires experience significant lateral (side-to-side) loads due to vehicle sway from uneven roads or passing vehicles. Using the inflation pressure engraved on the sidewall will provide optimum load carrying capacity and minimize heat build-up.***

Good advise as the first part covers those that over tire their trailer above recommendations.
The last mentions side to side loading. We see that out here in high wind areas and 40 mph side winds.
I've seen my 16" LT E tires on service trailers (3042 lbs with 6k axles) run 92-94 psi all day long in 110 degree outside temps.
