tire pressure on 300SEL

My car calls for 27# front and 34# rear. This seems odd in that it seems the heavy front should have the higher pressure. I am using stock size tires, 205x65R 15. Any comments on this?

Tire pressure 88 300SDL

My car calls for 27# front and 34# rear. I would think it to be the other way around with the weight of the engine over the front. Any explanation?
