Question PS2 Tyre Pressures

My car has, until recently, been run on Michelin Pilot sports of stock size with pressures of 32 psi front and 36 psi rear which worked OK (except the rear tyre wear but my tungsten foot may have something to do with that).

Now I have my new Michelin PS2 fitted I'm curious as to what pressures the 'List have found to be optimal? Tyre sizes are 235/40F and 275/40R mounted on 17" turbo twists.

Garth, you got your ears on?

With a slightly different set up ( 225/45 & 25540R17PS2s on 7 & 9" respectively), I've used a 36/38 psi f/r split. Try that, then +/- 2psi either way maintaining +2psi on the rear.
