Correct tire p.s.i. for 19inch wheels

Guys whats the psi your running on your 19's with low/pro tires.
Fronts are 235-35-19
Rears are 265-30-19
I'm @ 30psi right now and the cars feels ok. I was wondering if I can get some better input as to what psi to run on this set from people who have a knowledge on this topic.

Thanks
Mike

i put 32 psi in front and 34 psi in the rear in my 19s. any higher it will be too harsh and stiff. Any softer, you run a chance of bending the rims over a bump or depression. And gas mileage will go lower per mile. 30 psi is too low imho. no bends yet on your rims?

Nope My family just gave new tire for my B-day and I checked each BBS wheel and they are 100% true. I really want the best psi to run for a better handling/ride.

36.5 in the front, 37.5 rear. Been through two sets, tires wore pretty evenly.
