I set mine to 40 PSI cold, in south Georgia. The highest I’ve ever seen was 44 on an interstate at 70 mph. I have not gone through our hot summers yet so might have to adjust then.

Running mine at 41, which is what I ran the stock LLR tires on my Cruze ECO at before the Bolt. Those were rotated every 6000 miles, and would have easily gone 100k plus, except for sidewall damage to one at 89k.

The placard states 38 or 39 psi. That's what they should be at a base level (cold pressure).

For best efficiency, a cold pressure of 42+ psi (up to the tire's max listed pressure -- I believe 44 psi on Michelin Energy Saver A/S).

For best acceleration, probably 30 psi... maybe 28 psi, though at that pressure, the bead could separate from the rim.

I had them at 40 psi on summer. Now, about 6 months later, they are at 35 psi cold. I need to add more (cold weather).
I tend to keep about 40 psi, or more like 39 front, 41 rear, or 40/42.
