Yeah... I ran mine with 51psi for awhile, by mistake (the dealer
forgot to bring the shipping pressures back down when they delivered
the car to me)!  Lost a few fillings, that's all.  :-)

I run them at 36, which seems about right to me.  They're a
respectable tire.  Not the best all-around, but not awful.  Given
their price, if I were buying a new set of 4, these wouldn't even
be a consideration.  But they're fine as OEM tires, IMO.  Just
a bit squirmy if you push 'em too hard, but that's not something
I do in everyday driving.
