The 460 was made in Holland, it was based on an old DAF design, so I looked on a Dutch website and found:

normal driving - front 30 psi, rear 27psi

heavy load - front 30psi, rear 30psi

It will do absolutley no harm to increase the rear pressure by a further 5 or even 8 psi. This will only help stability.
