You'll see there is a little triangle on the sidewall pointing towards the edge of the tread. The manufacturer suggests that this is the limit of where treadwear should be occurring (beyond that, your driving on the sidewall). It's a poor man's quick way of knowing if you're rolling the tire. A better way to judge pressures is to measure tire temperatures across the tread with a pyrometer.
