Search as there have been many discussions on this.

This thread was for the Accord but they use a similar 205/55 R16 size so you can use those tyre pressures. For comfort, I would use 32 - 33 psi. For a good balance, go 35 - 36 psi

Optimum is different for each person and car. A car with coilovers would find 32 psi uncomfortable, but on a stock car you could run at 40 psi and feel more comfortable.
