Default Recommended Tire Pressure

I have the 18" fanblades and not sure what the recommended tire pressure is...I cant seem to find out on the tire or anywhere else. I know this is kinda a dumb question but Id appreciate your help. Thanks

most tires have a max pressure around 55 or 60 psi? I can't remember exactly.

you can't go wrong with 35psi. I keep mine inflated to that and no problems.

now, if you are autocrossing or drag racing...that's a different story.

Should be on the sticker located on your driver side door jam.

Not what the door sticker says, unless they changed it.
32 is what the door sticker says 17 or 18" wheel option.

I run 40 front and 35 rear. Does a good job of countering the natural tendency to steady-state understeer.
