This is what my tire sticker says...

				BAR	PSI	kPa

185 R14 C 6 PR		Front	3,0	43	300
			Rear	3,7	53	370
205/70R14 97R	   	Front	2,1	30	210	
Reinforced		Rear	2,8	40	280

I have Michelins 185 R14 94 R (I believe these are reinforced and replace the ones 
above.  The tire pressure on the tire is 40...that's is what I inflate to.
