Towing tyre pressures

Hello, I have and HSE on 18" wheels, and wondered if anyone knows what they should ideally be for towing. Can't seem to see anything in the handbook, and on-line it shows the normal pressures which is 32 allround.

On my old car I used to increase the pressures to the 'constant speeds above 100kph'

You don't have to increase them for towing...I'm sure it says it in the handbook.
I certainly never do and it makes life so much easier.

Tyre pressure should always be run at what is stated on the Tyre Pressure Placard! Towing makes no difference as the pressure is a calculation of maximum tare weight of vehicle and speeds!
So unless your about to overload your vehicle or attempt warp speeds then the placard is
"King"!
One exception is off-roading in soft sand where lowering tyre pressures is advantageous. MY15
