I have just fitted a set of 18" styling kit alloys shod with 225/40/18 Falken tyres. I would like to ask all you knowledgable people in here what would be the best pressures to run in them.
Thanks in advance.

WIM recomends 35psi for 215/45/17 tyres, not sure if 35psi is recomended for 18" tyres (try it and see how you get on).
I used to run mine at 33psi, but I now find my car runs/handles better at 35psi.

on std Lexus rims (17" or 18"), 35psi is great all round (and is recommended by Tony @ WIM)

If you do'nt weigh much and do'nt have passengers go for 33 psi , but if you are a bit heavy and have passengers go for 35psi
