For daily tire pressures, start off with whatever is recommended on the sticker inside of the door. Regardless of tire size, its the best starting point for your car.

For alignment, that comes down to driver skill. I'd start off with -3*/-1.5* of camber (depending on tires), and leave the toe 0 front and back. This will improve cornering without killing the tires. Running 0 rear toe on the street is a little risky, but if you've already been doing it...

 

You might want to run a couple of events with your current setup, without changing a thing, in order to get a feel for how it behaves. Then start making changes.

Oh and try some punctuation next time. I had to read that post twice, slowly, just to comprehend what it said.

Because Honda specified a little rear toe in for safety.

Rear toe in increases high speed and braking stability, especially with the way the rear suspensions on the EG, DC, and (I think but am not positive) EK toe out under droop. Hit the brakes, weight transfers forward, rear suspension toes out on both sides...

And I agree with PatrickGSR94.

This is a great way to approach changes to the car.
