Best tire pressure.....
I know on the sidewall of tires it shows you the MAX PSI recommended. But what should the actual PSI be? Do i follow what is on the inside of the door?
I am currently running 215/40-17.
Thanks for any replies.

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.
Do NOT set the pressure to the maximum pressure indicated on the sidewall of your tire.
