Default PSI for 215/40/ZR17 Yoko Paradas?

Anyone know what sort of PSI I should be sticking into my tyres on my classic scoob? The rears were at 26 when I went to check them (not checked them before...!) and fronts were uneven as one had lost a little. Help!

Pressures are the same as standard wheels mate
You always put the same pressure in no matter what wheels or tyres you fit,
Your not changing the weight of the car

Wow! Is that true? I never knew that. Just shows you sometimes the easy way out works the best. I was always going the hard way about it like, if its a lower profile it would need a little bit more air so if you hit a pot hole or something the added air would save the rim. Hahahaha

Glad i read this post.
