I have an h22 accord sedan weighing in at 2820 with driver on omni coilovers (8k 10k)
and I was on bridgestone potenza re711 tires size 205 50 15. Tomorow I will have front wheels on with tires that are khumo ecsta all season tires 195 55? 15. It should be around 75 degrees tomorrow. what kind of psi would you suggest for my front tires?

Just do around 20-22 psi for regular street tires. They'll hook a little better and may potentially reduce excessive wheel hop.
