Default Safe tire pressure for Daily Driving

I did a search but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. I have a 2001 WS6 with the mods in the sig. I'm running 275 Nitto Drags on the back and I can't hook at the track or street any better than my old stock street tires. My best 60ft is 2.0. I have the tires inflated all the way and I want to drop the pressure for better traction. My question is: what is a safe tire pressure to run out back for great hook up and proper safety on the street and highway for daily driving?

25 street, 18-22 track (you have to try until you hook).

Your 10 bolt won't like it but 15psi at the track with a 10 sec 2nd gear burnout seems to be the ticket on the 555R's. 25-27psi on the street. 275 17's.
