My new rims and tires just came in from The Tire Rack :D !!!

What air pressure do you guys run in yours? Max pressure is listed at 50psi.

32 in the summer is fine, maybe 40 even. Were do you live and how hot is it. Heat expands the air so less is more.
I personally ran 40psi

The installer pumped mine up to 47 psi in the front and 46 psi in the rear. I think I need to take that down, though...

Is there any kind of reference we can use to find the correct pressure? What is the pressure listed on the RS 1.0 xA with the 17" rims and tires?
