About 30-31 PSI i think. Most tyre pressures are the same.

Play about with them a bit to see what suits the car, the tyres and your driving style. So long as you don't go silly they'll be fine, and you might just improve the handling or comfort more to your liking. Admittedly its a little different with the trackcar but, I run the 'road' fronts at 35, the 'road' rears at 32, the 'track' fronts at 26 and 'track' rears at 30. That makes the car drive just how I like it. That said, when I change tyres i'll probably have to start again.

The right pressure for your tire size is:
Front (34 PSI)-Rear (34 PSI) when car is Unladen
front (34 PSI)-Rear (43 PSI) when car is Laden
