Got My New Winter Wheels/Tires...What Pressure Do I Run?

Received my Winter wheels/tires from the eBay seller yesterday, a near perfect take-off set of stock MB staggered 18" AMG wheels & Continental A/S RFTs, center caps, and TPM sensors...all for only $1,890 total w/free shipping. These tires literary look brand spanking new...still have the red colored stripes on them! BTW, a front 18" wheel/tire combo weighs 51.0 lbs...the wider rear wheel/tire weighs 52.5 lbs. When I take off my staggered MB stock 19" AMG wheels/tires for the Winter, I'll list those weights as well.




Now when I say "near perfect", it's because there was a couple real small nicks/scratches on one of the wheels. Seller was very reasonable when I called him about it...and he took off an additional $200 off the original $2,090 price...hence why I ended up paying only $1,890. I even put this wheel set on the PayPal 6 months interest free plan. Here's a pic of the nicks/scratches...from 5 feet away you don't even see them:




So my question is for the W205 owners out there with the 18" AMG wheels...what tire pressure is listed on the door jam sticker of your car? My C300 came with the 19" wheels, and the door jam sticker states 39 psi front & 45 psi rear...and I can't seem to find the recommended pressure for the 18" tires in the owners manual.

36 psi all around for the 18's. BTW, the correct tire pressure for normal loads is listed under the fuel door cover. The one on the sill is for maximum load.
