Default tyre pressure in 17"

i did search but all i found was a whole heap of numbers

ok i bought BA SR 17" rims fitted today, one looked abit flat so i went to inflate...im use to 35psi in my 16"s so i went for that in the 17's.....they just started deflating and look flat. so i inflated to 40 and thats more than what most people have said they use????? : to top it off the rear one was set to inflate to 40psi, but started deflating down and looked flat... im lost

anyways tyres are 225/50? 17" what should i be using for max tread wear and best fuel econ and best comfort .... that'll trick ya

pics in my workshop thread soon..

thanks heaps
