Default Tire Pressure Pirelli P6 17s

I did not find anything on the forum for this topic. I'm sure I have interpreted the pressures on the gas lid label. I am running these at 27 psi. Is this correct?
Many thanks,
Bill

I believe the tire pressures are listed on the driver's door jamb and are 35 psi all around.

Meant to say I'm not sure I understand the label correctly. No, Alan, it is on the gas lid as I stated. Owners manual directed me. When I first looked at the label I was not sure. This evening I took a flashlight and magnifying glass with me so I could be sure I could read it. It stated three categories bar, psi and Kba(?). It further breaks it down in two categories for front and rear tires for 17s. Fronts are 0-100mph 26 psi; 100+mph is 27psi. Rear shows 0-100 mph at 28 psi 100+mph is 29 psi. I could not tell the first time when I read it which is why I came here and asked. So decided maybe I should take a better look with the magnifying glass....glad I did.

Interesting. I wonder where I got that 35 psi number in my head.
