Default Air Pressure

What air pressures do you prefer. I just checked mine with a digital gague, and the reading are as follows.
29 37
38.5 39

I just took delivery 2 weeks ago and assumed that the dealer would have set the air pressure, but I guess they either ignored it or have a really bad gague. I know the factory reccomended pressures are 32f and 32r, but was wondering if any one has had success with anything different.

i have similar experience to what you found.. the rears pressure was 42!!!!!! and i discovered that too late.. the result was extreemly fast rubber expend.. now i have 10k miles in the odo and my tires look like slicks!! (only the rears) front tires were on perfect 32 pressure... also when tire pressure is higher than normal it will have less grip and less traction espesially when u launch from a stop..
