FPMSL 40psi   you will get far better grip by running them around 30-32. 40psi you are reducing the amount of contact each tyre has on the road, you need to strike a balance

28-32 is ok
anything higher or lower is not!
i run mine at 30/32.

in the technical book thing i got with the corsa is recommends:
30psi on front,
32psi rear.
should be same with all tyre sizes as its pressure and not volume its measuring.
