Hi Henry. 
 
I can not comment on the correct inflation pressure for those tires but, you should be able to find the correct answer at this link: <http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=38> then use the pull down for all of the technical articles relating to tire pressure. 
 
Good luck & safe travels.
