Please inform the rookie

I just got my 3rd straight Acura. This time it's an 07 TL Type S cert pre owned with 30K. I got the Carbon Bronze Pearl with the 18 inch dark allow Aspec rims and low pros. I didn't put those rims on it the person who had it before me did. What's the correct psi they should be at? I like the sporty look but I was expecting a smoother ride with less road noise. I'm not sure if that the tire making the noise or something else. I'd like to keep the look just please teach me to maximize my ride while maintaining the look.

I've got the same A-spec wheels on my 08 Type-S. Except in chrome. My tires are 235/40R18 95W. According to the sticker on the driver's side door sill, the cold tire pressure of the front should be at 35psi and the rear tires at 32psi.

Hope this helps..

look at the wear on your tires. If you're wearing out on side of the tires and not evenly might be an issue with alignment.
