I think your observation is accurate.

over thinking is what got me to the track in the first place
Also, if I didn't do some due diligence, I would have ended up on the track with old brake fluid, street brakes, old tires, a radiator that would have overheated for sure, and a boost level that may have blew my engine. Sooo, with all that said I think asking more questions makes sense. Don't want to miss anything..driving your car on a road course is serious and I want to be safe which is my first priority. That's why I'm so concerned about this stuff.

I actually didn't know there was a recommended pressure on a tire, only the maximum pressure and usually the max pressure is a LOT higher than recommended Nissan. I'm going to say if Nissan is 33, max pressure is over 45psi.
:EDIT: Max pressure for the kumho's in 205-50-15 is 51 psi.
