That seems quite high considering the stock recommendation is 32. I'm at 35 all around with similar sizing.

really. I was going by the tire max. In the past I have just stayed around 10psi lower than max (which is 50 on the so3). But nonetheless I will try that.

thanks,

The "max" listed on the tire is for reference purposes only. Never use the max pressure unless that's what the CAR calls for. Use what is recommended for each vehicle (at least use it as reference).
