33 front and 40 rear, per Honda's recommendation.

If your car is aligned properly, rear tire wear should be even across the tread. If you don't do a lot of hard cornering, you may find that the inside edge of the tread wears before the outside edge does. But that is not a sign of improper inflation.

Try 33/40 but keep an eye on the wear pattern, especially the rear tires. If it looks like the rear tires are wearing too much in the middle, then try lowering the rears down a few psi. I find that with my OEM 16/17 wheels/yoko tires 33/36-38 (depending on load) wears the best for long highway driving—but my alignment settings/suspension is not stock.

:D Just drive faster in and out the corners, jjc!!

Now I got another good excuse to take corner fast...
 
My car has a little sticker on the panel when you open the drivers door. It lists a bunch of info including the recommended tire presures for both the regular tires as well as the spare. But I'm too lazy to go out and look at this moment. :D
