Check your door jams to see what the suggested PSI is. You fill the air to specs, not suggestions.

Yes.
Also, if you over inflate, you lose traction. Things like potholes are more likely to cause a flat.
If you under inflate, you'll ruin the shape of the tire. By sitting in park, the tires will develop flat spots.
