I just installed the new Hankook Ventus v12 245/45/17 on my 525i and wanted to inquire if anyone with those tires might recommend an Optimum Tire pressure for best performance. The tire mentions max 50 PSI i have currently 38 psi all around. Thanks !

It all depends on the type of driving you are doing. For normal driving, the BMW recommended tire pressures should suffice. If you're doing a lot of hard cornering, then you should increase the pressure in the fronts to at least 40 PSI.
