Try shooting for 30 psi hot on the tires. Setting them at about 28 psi cold should do the trick.

The sticker on the door is the pressure for the stock run craps. The runcraps have a very stiff side wall. I’m running the Goodyear GSD3s (non-runcraps), 32 psi cold seems to work well.

Now you know something about me. Happy now?
BTW I would think it would be against forum rules to post a car for sale without a profile. That would make more sense to me. What do you think?

Max pressure value stamped on a tire is NOWHERE NEAR the recommended pressure. It indicates the highest cold pressure the tire is designed to contain, i.e. after which it will likely fail.
30 psi is the recommended pressure for the C5.
