Default GT Takeoff Tire Pressure

I assume I can't go by the pressure required on for my stock wheels now that I have GT Takeoff Pirellis. Anybody know what pressure I should be running? The cold pressure when I got them out of the boxes (from Saleen) was 32 PSI. The tires so NOT appear to be under-inflated on the car, but I would like to know what GT owners are told to inflate tires to.

Right or wrong, I keep mine at 28psi...



EDIT: I checked my door jam, and will be upping the pressure to 32-35psi.

LX200, both of my 05s have the P Zeros on them and I had the same question. According to the guys at the dealership the tire pressures on the V6 for the 16-inch tires are the same as for the 17-inch tires, so the sticker in the door sill works for both.
