On mine i run Toyo T1-S on front at 34, and Toyo T1-R on rear at 32.
Front pressure depends on how soft the tyre wall is. T1-R has reinforced sidewall so 34 is fine for me.
TBH, i really dont know what difference my 1 or 2 PSI can make, i think it is a mental thing for me, LOL.
I only swapped to T1-S as i got a ******* puncture, had to change both tyres, and they only had one T1-R in stock.
I now prefer the T1-S on the front, i think it is grippier myself. Or again that could be due to the softer sidewall of the S model tbh.

Apart from any personal preference, tyre pressures remain the same no matter what make or size of tyre, or even size of wheel. They are relative to the weight of the car.

Answered here. Read parts 1-5. 37/32 is recommended initially; but that will be too harsh for most people/conditions
