A long term Corvette owner told me 30 summer and 32 winter. Its worked good for me. I have 30K on the OEM runflats with 5-6/32 remaining. Lots of highway miles in there, your milage may vary.
Those redlight to redlight runs and pushing the corners until the AH screams are what eats them.

The door says 30 psi cold.
the GS D-3's are known to lose traction in the cold
I set mine at 28 psi cold in the summer when road heat increased the pressure by 4-6 psi.
in the spring and fall when the roads are cold and the pressure doesn't change by more tha 2 psi, I set them at 30 psi

Same as any other tire for the car. The sticker on the inside of the driver's door will tell you the factory recommendations.
However, I try to keep mine at 30 psi hot - which comes out to about 28 psi cold.

Depends on how cold it is. Had em all equaled out (just put 30 in them all as it says on the door) this summer but recently its been cold as a witch's . . .well cold anyway. Started getting the "Low Tire Pressur" warning on the DIC when starting out (dropped to like 24 - 26 cold), so I put a few pounds in just to stop the warning. Put them all at 29 cold now (wich would be adding like 4 lbs, yes they were all set to 30 back when it was warm out, but at 10 degrees the same amount of air only gets them up to 24, so you have to add air to get up to 29 even though they didnt leak or anything) and they heat up to about 30 - 32 in use.
