I am curious what the members use for tire pressure as I am not sure what is good for our cars for normal driving, feel free to state your rim/tire size and pressure(s). I went back to 14" rims with 205/70 tires and am currently running 34 lbs all around. Is this too high or low? What do you run?
 
I think 34 is okay, run between 32 and 35 myself on 195/70 tires, stock rims.

Stiffer tires ride more harshly, particularly with short sidewalls, so what exactly are you trying to accomplish?

High performance driving days we used to have, we were recommended to go as high as 40 psi. Chalk the sidewalls and see how much the tire rolls under the rim. The car glided nicely on smooth pavement but harsh as hell when things got bumpy.
