I was wondering what PSI should my tyres be? After 2 months of owning the car i go to fill them up with air, and the fronts were 28PSI and the back tyres were 32psi?!?! is this normal?

I have 18 inch 245 dunlop runflats both front and back.

There should be sticker in the driver's door jamb that will give you the correct pressure.

FYI,
My door frame sticker says 245/40 R18 should be 32 front; 35 rear; 38 rear if M+S all seasons.
