Question Correct tire pressure (437m reps)

Hi guys ! Sorry for opening new thread., but i need your help.

2017 bmw 430i xdrive (oem wheels is 18' 400m)

I bought 437m reps 8.5 front 9.5 rear.
Tires is Ventus V12 Evo2 (summer) 225/40/19 and 255/35/19.

Please guys can you recommend me a correct tire pressure (front and back) for my wheels.


(PS I have heard that is better to little bit over pressure the tires to secure reps.)


Please gentlemen's help me out !

Optimal tire pressure is going to be on the inside of your door jamb on a yellow/white sticker. If it is hot out (70+) then add 4PSI to that number, if not then fill up to the number on the sticker. Due to physics, if you are looking to get more traction, you can use a slightly lower PSI to increase contact patch of tires, but honestly I would stick with what the recommendation is.
