Use the factory recommended pressure which will be located on an info plate riveted (or stuck, if it's a sticker) inside one of the door jambs.
The PSI info on tire sidewalls is meaningless to most people, it's merely a max PSI stat, and should not be used to determine optimal daily PSI.

35psi for Ralliart, but changes if you drive fast (like over 120mph fast) or in low temperature. Check side of tire for max, will prolly say 35psi

going by the door placard, if you are using tpms sensors in your winter wheels you are going to be in for a headache. any temperature drop, if you are at the exact proper pressure, will cause the pressures to drop in your tires and make the tpms think your tires are low. i, as well as all the other techs in the shop, just keep it simple and do all tires at 35psi regardless of use or season (unless of course tires are rated at lower than the usual 44psi max). just makes life easier really. either way if you dont feel comfortable doing that, just drop a couple psi but its much less headache from tpms if you keep them a bit above threshold. if you're not using tpms and just going to put up with the light anyway, do whatever you like, 30-32 psi all the way around would probably be optimal
