Default Tire pressures for RS-2s?

Hey guys. I have a stock '03 and I have Hankook Ventus RS2s front and back. Sizes are: F 205/55/16, R 245/45/16. I currently run 34psi cold all around. I was just wondering if my tire pressures are incorrect for these tires because the car seems to drift to the left and right too much for my taste. I got a factory alignment right after I got the new tires. I bought the tires on 08-10-05 and I have driven on them for approximately 1500 miles. I read the post by "rmmmm" about his car doing the same things as mine. He also has new tires. Am I running the wrong tire pressures or does this happen a lot with new tires?

Did you experience any tracking or wandering of the car on the road, i.e. drifting to the left or right, while the tires were still new? Thanks a lot.

When they are brand new, you do get some tread-squirm, but I haven't experienced any wandering.
