OEM 17s tyre pressures?

Running standard tyre sizes I would run 36 all round, if people can provide evidence in the way of results and figures as to why they run lower pressures then I am all ears. But all I can see you doing is getting uneven wear, increasing the temperature of the tyres and making them more prone to blow out under extreme driving.

Well when I ran 36 at the rear the center of the tyres wore much faster than the sides, i dropped the pressure 2psi and now they are wearing evenly.

Sounds like your car needs a geo setup, as with 36 in mine I get nearly perfect wear across the tyre.
