Follow the sticker on the door for any tire but do not inflate the new tire past its max stamped on the side. My tires say 44 psi max. You should inflate your tires cold to ~36 and hot they might be 40. Ken C has explained it correctly. All the new tires will have is the maximum inflation not the recommended. My tire shop (Canadian Tire) inflated mine to 30 when they installed them. The ride sucked and the fuel economy went down 2 MPG.
