What tire pressure you are running on 18" Sports rim on street?

I think factory recomended is 33 psi all around. I am running 34 psi. I don't know if I should run higher for better mpg?

35-38 psi is good enough for me.

34-35 psi. Slightly above recommended so TMPS does not cause problems when it cold out. Anything higher and ride feels bouncy to me.

34-35 should be fine.

Honestly going between 34psi and 35psi won't make too much of a difference. If you want to see the adverse affects of tire pressure though, Mythbusters did a special on over, under, and correctly inflated tires haha.

What's the tire rating? That'll determine minimum pressure you should run. Anything above it is just tweaking.

Also, note that temperature will affect the running pressure. On a nice summer day, driving down the highway, my 32 ends up peaking at 36 or so. So, your 36 could theoretically push it in the 40s.

During the last cold front, it never made it above 33.
