Question Tyre pressure on MY05 STI with dccd

Can anyone tell me the correct tyre pressure to use on MY new MY05 STI it has the part slick bridgestone Potanza tyres. standard 17"s

I have checked them all and they are all set at 37 psi which seems way to high to me !

I usually put 32 psi allround.

Anyone got the same.

The Handbook does tell you but I think the normal load pressures are 32psi front and 28psi rears.

32/28 psi front/rear? My book says 36/30 psi f/r. Mine is USDM STi 05, so I guess different weight distribution and suspension geometry are to blame?
