My Dunlop tires are worn out and it's time to put my stock TL rims/tires back on. I don't feel like buying new tires for my A-spec rims.

Anyway tire pressure is 39psi front and 36psi rear, but since I'm going to be putting my stock rims back on should I still follow the tire pressure (A-spec), or should I go back to 32psi front, and 30psi rear?

I should search, but I want to get started today because I'll be using the jack that comes with the car.

A-Spec is 39F/36R, but I thought the recommended pressure for stock 17" wheels on a 6M is 35F/32R- check your door plate or last page of the manual.
I prefer a little higher- I use 37F/34R on a 5A.

...i do 40 all around

the recommended 32 psi...gives too much drag imo; i believe the stock tires have a max cap of 50, no?

When you buy the A-spec wheels there is a sticker that you place on your door jamb (39 front/ 36 rear).

The book states 32 front 30 back (stock wheels / tires)

That doesn't sound correct- 2005 TL, right?

Mine says 35F/32R for the 6M TL and 32/32 for the 5A : https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...505SRVINFO.pdf

+2 stick with the book. It should be good regardless of the suspension setup. If your driving is a bit spirited I guess you can go up a couple psi at each corner. You have room for a lil leeway but don't get carried away. It is a rough guide, remember those tires can go on any car. Your manufacturer went to great lengths to assess an optimum psi for you. Just make sure there is a bit more air in the fronts than rears.

DON'T rely on the max psi! That is the max PSI the tire is allowed to handle not nominal.

I would do 35 all around on the stockies and about 38 front and 35 rear on 18-19 inch aftermarkets and do about 40 and 37 on 20's.
