Metzeler M3 tire pressures

Hello. I just picked up some M3s today. For those of you that have these tires, what front and rear pressures do you use? On my Corsa IIIs, I ran 32 lbs. front and back on the street, and 30 front and back on the track. Thanks for your input.

Can't help with the pressure question but I would be interested in what you think of the M3s.

Ask me on October 26th, and I'll give you my post-track thoughts.

I tried the Metzeler M3 tires and I am switching to Michelin PiPo. Since a couple of weeks I have the PiPo 2CT as a front tire together with a Metzeler M3 rear tire. Even so the Metzeler is not a bad choice, I did not have much confidence in the M3 front tire. With the PiPo it is a different story. It is probably just a matter of trust, but I like the PiPo front tire better.
Mileage Metzeler M3:
Front: 3'300 miles,
Rear: 3'000 miles
I am looking forward to changing to Michelin PiPo 2CT as a rear tire.
