I ran standard pressures on my 17"s as per handbook and label inside fuel cap.

Also I had to change my two rear tyres. They are 195/55/15 but front are 205/50/15. should I keep the same pressure in the rear as if they where 205/50's

I do know if you fit 195/45/15 you put less pressure than 205/50/15.
