Default Best psi to run?

Hey have Goodyear wrangler HPs in 18, what is the best pressure to run for everyday driving?

I know these tires suck, and plan to replace them soon.

when i had my 18's, i ran 32 in the front and 46 in the rear, check the door PSI's. Tires wore great at that PSI and seemed to get decent milage and "roll" nicely. i had my tools in the back all the time, so there is usually extra weight back there

That is the understatement of the day!!! Just wait until the snowmelt fills the holes and the water pressure of cars hitting them tears them apart. Plus the impending refreeze (or nightly refreeze in spots). The Rover is getting full time use right now because of it as it has the highest profile tire!
