32 psi is what I've always put in 17"

I have those size tyres, I run 32psi all round with no issues

Same as above.

cheers guys I read that on internet but best to check with the people who have them on their cars

I've always put 3-5 psi more in the fronts due to the fact that they take more weight and force under braking pressure

32psi on any car weighting 1300kg is fine.

I have always stuck with Honda's recommendations, which my manual says is 32 PSI.

The tech who installed my last set of tires at National said to keep them at 32 for normal driving, bump them up to 34 when I'm going on the highway for a long trip to improve mileage. It does seem to make a little difference in my gas mileage.

I tend to go to 34 PSI.

Purely because that is what I've always put in tyres
