I am also interested in this... I own a 987 boxster S with 20" techarts and now, after a year and a half with the wheels I cant seem to find on the net any info on the recommended tire pressure for a 20" wheel. Tires are 245/30/20 and 305/25/20.

I would start at 38PSI all around and adjust to your preference...44 in the rear sounds a bit high.

i was running 44 in the rears and breaking loose alot (Stage II 996tt). Also noticed moderate amount of increased wear in the middle of the tire so lowered to 41 rear, 37 front and very happy

There is no real tire pressure for a specific wheel size. It all depends on a combination of tire spec and vehicle weight.
