Default Azenis tire pressure?

well i finally got some azenis sports on my 95 GSR. what kind of pressures should i be running for autox and for street. on my door jam it recommends 35 front and 33 rear, so thats what i have in them now. what should i do for autox and what about street?
i know that in autox i can play with the pressures using the shoe polish on the side walls, but what about for minimal wear for the street.

For autocross I'm using 40f/35-37r, but I also have 350/400 springs, Koni Yellows, COmptech rear sway bar, ES bushings, strut bars and camber kits front and rear.

I would start your car around 45f/35-37r for you.

Yup. Think about it. Stock pressures are good for daily driving. When you push the car up to it limits you will need more air pressures to keep the tire from rolling over OR coming off the rim.

for auto-x I usually run mine at about 38-40 front and 40 rear. Seems to work ok for me. But for the street I lower it down to about 30 all around
