What typre pressures should I be running my 17inch speedlines with 215/40/17 tyres on?

I just set them to 34psi.. as it is a very hot day so hoping they are about 33... does that sound about right anyone ?

Thanks

I keep 2 PSI higher in the front than the rear.... Feels better to me for my driving.

Running 34PSI in the front

Thank you..

tyre pressures is something I don't normally worry about until the handling feel funny or the tyres look squiggy(what a nice word).

Only stuck the wheel on last night so was after a ball park figure... handles lovely at 34 all round...

Do your tyre edges tend to wear on the front much?
