I like to put mine at 33 PSI.
Your tires most likely have a max of 40-45, but you don't need to put it that high.

check the sticker in the drivers door jam, should state what pressure you should run for your tire size.

It also depends on tires as well. For stock tires I think I recall something like 32 in front and 34 in rear? But my car is too far to check exactly. All of my tires are hovering around 33, about as close as I could get to 33 with that crappy pressure gauge at the gas station :laugh:
yeah its 32/34 for 205/60R15 tires ... the smaller ones might be different. I run a pound higher then what the sticker calls for.
the SVT is 34/34. and for awhile I was running the SeVT at 42/38
the tire pressure is dependent on the tire itself.
the tire has a max tire pressure right on it.
usually a few PSI below the max works best for the tire.
if the tire calls out a max of 35 PSI, then you should be good with around 32/33
if the tire calls out a max of 44 PSI, then you should be good around 40-42.

IIRC Lindsey your tires have a max of about 40 psi. However, it says right on the sidewall. Thanks for that tip, Elky, I think I'll check mine later today

I'll be checking mine Monday. I hope we get SOME sun over the weekend so I can really get to washing/waxing.

60 degrees + rain = SZ wet t-shirt contest.
It's a win, no matter which way you look at it.
