I swamp my oem tires/wheels and got myself 4x 245/40 18 pirellis. I'm running at 35 PSI all around. is that safe/okay or should i go back down to factory setting at 32 PSI?

Please let me know. Thanks!

Sticking to the factory spec is usually ideal for normal driving but a few PSI up probably isn't going to hurt anything.

Pay attention to the temperature when you measure the pressure - the 32 psi is cold pressure, so measure it in the morning before driving the car. I usually do 34-35 psi.

Also factories tend to spec different pressures front/rear to make the car understeer. I usually ignore that and do all 4 the same.
