Yeah - what's written on the tires is typically the "max psi" they are rated for, not the optimal psi for best mileage, handling, and performance of the tire on a particular bike. My hunch is that the max PSI on that front tire is actually 42 and not 32, but I could certainly be wrong. Nevertheless, 32 front and 36 rear are likely going to suit just fine.
