Reg shouldn't matter? They will be 205/55 R15 as he is running normal BBS wheels, I read about online and the general consensus was 31-36PSI....helpful. I've gone (for now) with the default of 32PSI as it is what I chuck into most of my cars unless otherwise instructed by a manual. :D

Sounds about right, hand book says 34psi for the front and 32 psi for the rear (2.1 & 2.3 bar)
