You are running low profile tires now, so the more pressure you put the more protection you will have. 38 - 39 psi is good enough. With your specs, I personally would not run anything below that.

What's up man thanks for your input. Weren't you running the same wheels? Vssx step lip wheels?
I'm running the same size tires you are except they are Hankooks and Discount Tire Direct told me 37 front and 36 rear and have had no problems and a smooth ride.
You're fine with 40 - personally I would probably run in the 43-45 if your max is 50. Better mpg and better handling than having softer tires due to lower psi
I run 30-32. The ride is too rough any higher. Mid 40's is crazy. I couldn't imagine how rough that must ride on these cars?? Especially with low-pro tires.

With plus sized wheels, the tire's sidewall is shorter so the rim is closer to the ground. Higher PSI makes the sidewall stiffer which can reduce damage from potholes.

Making an already stiff sidewall even stiffer makes a rough ride. We don't have potholes out here so I guess I'm more worried about ride comfort than wheel damage.
