I run about 40 front/36 rear in a stock-sized, all-season touring tire. You should run higher PSI in the fronts; I believe factory spec is 33/29.

I know the stock pSI but i'm not running stock tires or rims. The tires size is 225/45/17. So what so i put in then?

Lee, one of the members here, runs 40psi front and 28psi rear.
The 40f/28r tire pressure he is using is almost the same ratio as the 59f/41r weight distribution of the car, so it makes sense that the front and rear tires should have the same loaded radius when at these pressures. For much more information than you ever wanted, check this thread for some interesting perspectives on tire pressure ratios: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...pressure+ratio .

I get very good even treadwear at that pressure. Ride is a little harsh but I'll take a few bumps in exchange for not blowing a sidewall or bending a rim.
