Sounds like you won't have to air up with any urgency.
With no low range gearing or reasonable clearance, you won't really be going
places that require dropping pressures more than a little.
If only 5psi under, you could air up at Wilpena servo, or even down at
Hawker.
If running fairly low pressures (say 30) normally, you could probably not worry air down at all.
A little lower air pressures just helps with comfort, and reduces risk of punctures.
Forget any of the station hills drives, like Willow Springs (Skytrek) or
Argadells in the Mt Arden range, it's just too rocky for anything but decent off road tyres, 25psi, and reasonable clearance.
I think you'd like some of the lower tracks at
Argadells -
http://www.argadells.com.au/ . . . very nice in there, and some cracker campsites in the valleys . . . maybe
Malcolm will take you for a drive to Mt Arden summit if you can twist his arm : )
Other than that,
check out all the tracks in the Nat Pk, up to Aroona, where Hans Heysen stayed to paint, have a walk up Aroona Valley, towards the Heysen Trails end at
Parachilna Gorge (a good day and a halfs walk), turn around where you feel is good and back to
camp there.
The drive from the main road to
Blinman is fine, then head down through to
Parachilna Gorge, nice driving and camping through the creeks there.
Enjoy.
