Play around and see what gives best results. 32 is common for the masses. 35 is usually max pressure for the p-metric tires.

Other tires, you'll commonly see 44psi max inflation. Some 50, 51.

Try 32f/r, then 35/3535/32etc....

I'd say most people will tell you 32f/r is fine. Tune yourself into how the car is handling, and adjust as you see fit.

:yesnod 32 is a good place to start. That's cold pressure. The stock pressure is going to be too low for most folks' taste. You'll find better stability at higher speeds and in corners.

I seem to prefer mine at 33 front and 35-38 rear, depending on weather.-chet(sometimes I run 35 and 38)
