Non RTF pressure

Changed the tyres on my E90 318d m sport from OE run flats to Goodyear Eagle F1 assy 2, none run flat. Got 225 40 r18 front and 255 35r18 rear. The plate on the door states 2.0 bar (29psi) front & 2.4 bar (35 psi) rear. Do these pressures still apply to none run flat tyres, thanks.

I'm running mine at the loaded PSI setting, as I felt the lower setting was too soft.

I thought 29/35 was a bit soft also.

I run the max cold pressure on my pilot sport as-3 and love the handling now the tires are scrubbed....these are way better than the runflats for ride quality at all speeds....and now feel almost as connected as rft.

Whilst we're on the subject, what should you be inflating non-rft 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 to?

The same as the closest size on the door. And then the loaded PSI if you feel it's too soft.
