Tire pressure feedback please..

Hi,
Can I get some feedback on what tire pressure people are using.
I've got a 2016 AMG GT S and in my underground parking lot first thing in the morning the PSI compared to when I'm driving is quite a difference, (I understand why), but are people setting the recommended PSI cold or once driven via the TPMS?
Also, are you keeping fronts and rears the same PSI?
thanks

32/34 psi cold front/rear in Atlanta is my optimal comfort and performance pressure for me.

If in Mexico over 130mph raise it 3 psi.

And your done.

I say 31/32 cold. But that's close to what others are saying...just a little softer. Mine are factory. But I like them.

Normal to notice a large pressure difference parked in a cool location and subsequently when driving. Can be as much as six psi.

Optimally tire pressure should be checked/set first thing in the morning prior to the vehicle being driven. Set pressure iaw data placard inside the fuel filler door.

Use an quality gage to measure tire pressure. Tpms should be considered but a backup.
