Recommended air pressure

I can't find the recommended air pressure lbs in my owners manual. I have a 1ss with 20'' tires. Anyone know this?

I thought it was in the mid 30's.. My buddy said I want 42-45 psi, but I thought that was a bit high.

It's on a label on the driver side door jam.

Recommended tire pressures are normally indicated on a placard inside the drivers door or sometimes under the hood. I think ours is behind the drivers door.

I can concur the recommended is 36 all the way around.


Although I always go to the max on the sidewall, well, maybe a few lbs under. Better handling, better gas milage, and better wear on the tire. The car's recommendation is based on comfort vs economy, mileage, and wear. I don't care about comfort, so there we go!
