i keep mine around 30-31. Seems to be fine for me.

lower profile tyres have a stiffer sidewall construction, I'd suggest a starting figure 2-4 psii lower than that for the 205/55 15's

30 is about the norm though TBH, might be worth some experimentation though

air = free.

have a play and see what works for you. the weight of the car, the size of the wheels and the brand of tyre will all change the 'ideal' pressure.

though to be honest 30 is about right, which is plenty good enough for 99% of the population who seem unable to tell whether a tyre is almost flat or no let alone whether its a psi or two away from the norm

for 17 inch id say 24,30 is too high.

30 psi for me, seems fine. Could almost use an extra couple psi in the rears, to help with fun time!!!

i am not sure what it is in PSI, but i am running 2 bar all around. Like harry_p said, play arround with the pressures. i used to run 2.3bar which gave my car a harsh ride on b roads, i went to 2.2, 2.1, and settled on 2. I think it works well, it is still harsh sometimes but it is a big improvement.

i think 2 bar is 28 maybe 29
