I've always kept them 32 in the front and 29 in the back, according to the Nissan recommendation.

BTW the sticker its not on the door its under the hand rest compartment lid.

How does it feel? Do the sidewalls roll a lot? are they wearing even? How is the wet traction?

Under inflated tires are VERY bad in the rain, feel like you are riding on ballons when turning and will end to have the outside edge wear faster than the center of the tires.

If you're on stock springs with stock rims and stock-sized tires, 32f/29r should be good (if that is indeed the manufacturer's spec... I know it is for the 15" rims but I don't know about the 16s).
