Default (Stretched) Tire pressure?

Anyone know the best tire pressure for 185-60-15 on 15x8? Yeah I read the 501 thread, and after seeing them I said bye to the 17's.

Door jamb says 29 PSI all around for stock 15"s.

I've heard higher-than-stock is ideal. I just got my 195/60s mounted on my 513's this afternoon; I'm not sure what they're inflated to (probably 35psi, knowing my usual tire guy).

I normally run 45psi or so in my Kumho Ecsta ASXs anyway, because I get a noticeable improvement in gas mileage (my commute is mostly backroads, so I can coast a lot).

Stay between 32-34 psi and you should be fine.

Keep them the same as the stock pressures. There is already tension in the sidewall. Don't really need more than that.

If your tires were the other way, bulging, then you'd need a little more PSI to avoid them folding over.
