ok...have an 89 crx dx. tire pressures in owners manual say 32/32 for the dx. car came with 175/70r13's

now i have the same as the si's wheel and tire package (185/60r14's). owners manual says for si's, should be 28front/28rear.

which pressures should i go by? the guys who installed them at america's tire made them 32/32 but is that correct?

Try out different pressures until you find the one that you like best... optimal pressures vary from tire to tire. With my Dunlop SP8000s, I ran 33psi cold- with the S-03s I run 36psi cold. Try out different combinations front and rear to get the best combination of turn-in, ride quality, mileage, cornering and straight line traction, etc that you want.
