Depends on the tire; use the manufacturer's rating on the sidewall.

The car manufacturers recommended pressure is listed on a sticker on the drivers door post. The tire manufacturers maximum recommended pressure is on the sidewall of the tire. The door sticker is what is considered best for good ride and still safe for the load. If you're carrying heavier than normal loads you might want to bump that up a few PSI. Just don't exceed the max allowable listed on the tire sidewall. And the pressure should be check before the car is driven as heat buildup during driving will increase the reading.

To answer the question we need to know the year/make/modle of vehicle. Inflation requirements are vehicle specific. Two vehicles of different makes and models with the same tire size may not use the same inflation pressures.
DO NOT look for the inflation pressure on the tire itself. The only inflation listed there is a safety warning for the not-to-exceed maximum inflation pressure the tire has been tested to.
If you open the drivers door on inside door frame you should find the Vehicle Information Tag which lists the proper inflation pressures for your particular vehicle.

Tire pressure is specific to the vehicle, the tire manufacturer has no idea of what the vehicle weight is. Look inside the glove box door, the fuel filler car or inside the door for a plaque which will give you the correct tire pressure for your vehicle.

Two places to find the answer, the tires themsleves (MAX PSI) and the manufacturers sticker on the drivers door or the door post. Either will tell you.
A small variation in tire pressure should have no bearing on your braking ability, if you are having trouble stopping, or pulling to one side or the other or, if you are hearing noises from the brakes during braking that's a whole different scenario.

the maximum tire pressure is indicated on the sidewall of the tire, however that doesn't tell you the pressure the vehicle is designed for. that information should be on your driver side door jamb. if it's not there, call the vehicle manufacturer, they can tell you what pressure they need to be.
