      The min and max PSI should be on the tires, just have a look on the side wall and you should find the information you need.

      you should be around 32-34 lbs depending on the size..

      i watch the tread wear to determine if you have too much or too little based on size/weight of car.

      I got 25K out of the Kumho's that came with my '09 when it was bought new. I had those inflated to 40 PSI, and they were not great tires, but certainly OK. Better to over-inflate your tires than under inflate them. It will give you a harder ride, but better gas mileage.
