The tyre pressure is written on the side of your tyres :p if they are the factory fitted tyres then there is also a tyre placard on the drivers door pillar.

The pressures on the Tyre placard which is usually in one of the front door jambs is usually a minimum to go by. Usually says 32 or 34 PSI. Most on here run between 36 and 40 depending on their ride preference.

I usually run 36 -38 PSI in most of my cars irrespective of the brand of tyre as it gives a good compromise on ride comfort. 

Higher pressures reduce rolling resistance which helps fuel economy and tyre wear.  :cool:

Unless it's changed recently, the pressure on the side of  the tyre is the maximum it is designed for, which would be way more than the load of your car.

True, mine are max 630kg - 50psi, I would set 45 to 50psi if I were tarmac circuit racing though as Dazz mentioned 36 to 38psi is a good middle ground :goodjob2: the standard 32psi is to low for performance tyres.
