Default inflation rules?

Iam a noob at tires really.. if thats possible. But I recently got a new set of all season (falken ze912s) for my winter tires and I noticed they say max pressure 50 psi. I was a little shocked because my old set of zx512's say max 35 psi. I was curious what you all would inflate them to? thanks

Stickied at the top of this forum, where only the most clueless couldn't find it , is the topic:

Forum Rules and FAQ - READ BEFORE POSTING

It says:

What air pressure should I use in my tires?

As a general rule, regardless of wheel or tire size or type, the best place to start is with the pressure recommended for your CAR, as shown in your owner's manual and on your car either on the door jamb or glove compartment door. Measure the pressure when the car has been sitting for several hours out of the sun, at the outside temperature at which the car will be used. Adjust from there in 2 psi increments as needed, based on tire wear and your preference for handling and/or ride comfort.
