It varies with the size/make of tyre. Try about 36psi and play with them until it feels right. I run my 17" tyres at 40psi all round. The tyre pressures are actually shown on a panel in the passenger door frame, but not many seem to actually stick to them

40 front & back for me too on my 15"s.
Less than that & they tend to wear quickly on the outer edges.

My tyres are 215/15's all round and 38psi front and rear, with rear conversion, but you need to experiment to find whats right psi for you with your set up.

42 front and 46 rear on unconverted 2wd AFT on original sizes (195 70 15 and 215 65 15) on Conti Vanco 2 tyres. Might sound high, but after lots of experimenting I have done this for a long time, they hardly bulge at all, and feel just right. Would be interested in others views on this though.
