Question Larger Wheels and @ what Tire PSI?

I have a question for all those that have increaser their wheel/tire sizee. I just purchased (delivery Jun 21):

Front 18x8, 245/40-18
Rear 18x9, 275/35-18.

What tire presure should I carry in the front and rear for normal loads and for heavy loads. I'm told it's more than the 26/32 psi for the oem 245/45-17. I get many different answers. The range I'm gettigng for normal load is 32/34 to 34/34 to 38/42. It hard for me to believe such a change from 17" to 18"!?!?!

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Mark
