Yeah, my door jamb sticker says 30 psi too, which is what I go by.

That psi figure probably has daily driving and track driving factored into it.

If you lower the pressure on radials it makes the tread patch cup which makes you run on the outer treads = less contact = less traction.

32rear

35 front

just a bit above what is recommended, mostly to help a bit more on gas mileage....and so if they leak down a little i know i'm still safe.
