Maybe somebody who has the 16"-ers or a factory service manual handy (or maybe even an owner's manual) can verify this. Point being that whatever pressure somebody else needs may not be what you need.

If he takes it to the dealer, I guarantee they do 2 things. They will set all 4 tires to 35-36 psi cold, then re-train the sensors... and then ship him. You cant train/activate the sensors on your own, you need a special tool. So if its still under its 3/36 warranty, then take it in and have them do this...
