Default BF Goodrich KDW 2 pressures

What tire pressures should I run these at cold. I am going to the Nurburgring first time in a car at the track. I race motorcycles but gonna see what the T/A can do. I got bilstein shocks and strano springs with c5 brakes and c6 wheels so 275 front and 295 rear, also Hawk pads. Let me know.

although i'm still playing around with pressure...car feels good @ 31 front/30 rear which is basically stock pressure. I've tried 36/31 and car began to understeer in sharp turns.

I just experimented with pressures during my recent track visit and found that a similar setup was most comfortable. 32 front and 30 rear seemed to be ideal for me. Tried running the pressure up in the front to 36 and also started to encounter understeer in the sharper turns.

Didn't experiment much with the rears because I had good traction at 30 and didn't want to press my luck on losing traction from going higher.
