tire pressure on Mini w/16" run flats???

Hey, I have a new '05 Mini with 16" run flat Goodyear Eagle NCT5 195/R5516 H tires. The sticker on my door says 35PSI, but the manual states 35PSI for over 100MPH operation only. It calls for 30PSI for 1 to 4 passengers & luggage, normal running. 30 or 35? What say ye? My dealer didn't sound convincing when I asked but leaned toward 30. I found from 32 to 34 in my tires when I checked today.
Thanks,
gregc

i'll check tomorrow again, but the sticker on my door says 30 psi all around.

05 mcs 16" dunlops 5000s.

going up 2 psi all around ended up w/ a very stiff ride.
