Tire pressure on new 215/40/17's

What should the tire pressure be on 215/40/17 tires. I cant remember but i think the stock wheels were 32, maybe? Thanks, B

The fronts seem to be fine on 40 which is how they came set from DTD. The back seems a little hard as far as the ride quality goes. Do you always run the same psi front to back? Thanks,b

Yeah, I don't usually have anything in the back, so I keep at 40 all the way around. I just replaced my tires and they had worn evenly over 35k miles.

And the ride looks nice!
