What size/make/model of tires?

Generally inflation should be around 32-34 psi, even with non-OEM tire wheel combos, but not sure if your setup has any special issues involved.

Actually, tires show the MAXIMUM pressure, not the recommended driving pressure.

i wouldn't put 34 on the rears...the rear part of the maximas on a bumpy road(cities) is the worst part. the suspension is just way too harsh back there and you i think that its better if you don't go over 30PSI in the rears
i put 33 on the fronts and 30 on the rears
