Actually there is a label at the drive side,
Once u open the door, there is a sticker indicated at bottom of the pillar.
210 for front n 230 for back.
Normally I will jus pump 220 or 230 for all tyres.

The price is quite expensive.
Read some gd review on your tyre.
Though of changing to this tyre too.
How is the noise level? Grip?

Once you upgrade your rim or tyre size, the label indication no more valid, it for 15" stock size.

i pump 245 front 235 rear for the same profile and usually pump when i had travelled a distance. At < 230, my FC suffers and can feel the resistance.
