Various posts on the forum say main wheel tire pressure should be anywhere from 30-50 psi. For my -7A, I use 30-35 which seems to work. But should the nose tire pressure be different? I also fly Cessnas which run a higher pressure in the smaller nose tire than in the mains, e.g. 49 vs. 42. I'm using the Lamb nose tire from Van's.

I run 40-45 PSI in my nose wheel.
 
7A tire pressure

I maintain 45 pounds on all three wheels. Seems to work well and never a flat.
