This should be on the inside of the driver's side front door. Even searching on the internet you might be able to find it though. For normal operation you're looking at 36 PSI, but if you're going to be driving above 100 MPH you may bump that up to about 38. (Source: http://blog.lexus.co.uk/lexus-is-tyr...nd-size-guide/)

Could you please clarify? I am not intending to spread bad info, so I'd like to know.

There was a recent thread about tire pressure that went on for pages and some outlandish comments were posted...the last two comments above were in reference to that thread. What you posted was fine.
I hope this thread doesn't take on the safe life the last one did.

I reluctantly post a link to that thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...-tire-psi.html

Thanks. Definitely understand.

Anyone up for a "How to ask questions" section in the FAQ?
