Run 28 at the rear & 30 up front! they are low profile so u dont need shi*e loads of pressure in there, slightly less in the rear as its lighter & slightly more up front as it thats where more of the weight is, i run those pressures in mine handles like a dream,
i have 195-45-15s kumo on the rear, proxis on the front.

Normally anywhere between 30-40 psi will do the job.
