Re: Tire Pressure
This has been discussed at great lengths, but like oil, everyone has 3 opinions. I like to run them harder, over 40 lbs. Improves handling and tires wear more evenly. Of course I have a 29 so not completely applicable to your situation. You can see in my avatar there isn't the typical tire squish.

I always verify with the factory tag on the vehicle or the owners manual for proper tire pressure. |

Re: Tire Pressure
Everything I read says 35 psi is the target pressure for 19 inch tires....and my car drives the best when the tires are kept around 35psi.
