That will very from tire to tire.

Your best bet is to fill to the spec's that are on the tire.

good luck!

I run my BFG G sports at 26 in the front and 30 rear. The lower front pressure improves the ride alot and with these particular tires wear is even at this pressure (would be even at 30 also I am sure).

It really depends on the size of the tire. Also, what is listed on the tire is usually the maximum pressure, not the best pressure your particular car/tire combo.

It will vary based on the type of tire, size of tire, etc. I would recommend starting at the vehicle's recommended and slightly over inflate (+3) and see how you like it. Slightly underinflate the next time to see how you l ike it. Choose accordingly after both tests.
