I think you'll find most people between 35 and 45 pounds. I run 42 on my 20s.

88-90 and you'll be buying new tires and probably some facial cosmetic surgery

This should help. But be aware that there are different recommendations based on whether or not you intend to excede 100 MPH. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=100597

Torque setting on the bolts will be 80-88lb ft.

Tire pressure will be same as the OE Rfts.

I have tried a few different psi in my 19's. For me I like 38 rear and 36 front. Gives me the best ride and handling.
