ContiSport 2 tire pressure?
I have a 2000 E Class with 17" Benz rims with 235/45/17 ContiSport 2 tires. Does anyone know what tire pressure I should be running for normal load weight? And, no, looking at the inside of the gas cap door does not help because those specs are for the stock 16" rims and tires.

Do you guys find those Continental Sports create a lot of road noise?
I was taught that the important thing to remember with ANY tire is not what the manufacturer placed on the vehicle as some have hinted (manufacturers are sometimes in bed with a tire manufacturer <contracts>)but the tires rating...stick with AA, and always get a tire with a H or higher speed rating for a E class, and you can't go wrong,
oops forgot to mention try to stay with 400, or 360 for tread wear.
