Zen, on a FWD car you ushually run slightly higher preasure on the front of the car. It helps reduce tire roll over when you turn.

interesting Z!

can you please tell me a good PSI setting for my stock steelies right now?

i set 30 psi front rear right now...

i wanna check it again soon....since it's raining and i haven't drive my car for like 8 hours....this is a really good time to pump my tires..

Z, give me a good number for the front and rear steelies...

32 front - 30 rear?
31 front - 30 rear?

im only normal city driving...no racing at all..

are you talking about the size of 215/45/R17?

i think 35 front and 34 rear might be the good number that im gonna use after i got my new set of wheels...
