Default 98 Civic Tire Pressure

I have a 98 Civic that is dropped on true coilovers. I have the stock tires on at the moment and am wondering what the best tire pressure should be for the front and rear. I know that the sticker on the door says 30f 29r, but I am wondering that since it is dropped should it be different. It feels like I have no traction when driving and almost like my tires are just sliding across the pavement.

Those numbers only apply to the stock size wheels and tires. Ignore them completely if you have low profile tires on big wheels.

Have the alignment checked, if in a condition of toe-out, any car will have a terrible "push" (front skids when trying to turn). If it's not that, buy better tires.
