What is the best tire pressure for my Ford Focus?

I recently bought a used Ford Focus and I noticed that the tire pressure is lower than what is recommended on the driver's side door panel. Should I inflate the tires to the recommended 32 PSI or can I go higher? I want to make sure I have the best handling and fuel efficiency for my car.

It is important to maintain proper tire pressure for both safety and vehicle performance. Inflating your tires to the recommended 32 PSI is best, as it ensures the proper distribution of weight and contact with the road. Over-inflating can lead to uneven wear and reduced handling.

I've had my Ford Focus for over 5 years now and I always inflate my tires to 35 PSI. I've never had any issues with handling or fuel efficiency, and my tires still wear evenly. It's ultimately up to personal preference, but be sure to never go below the recommended pressure.
