If you're on factory wheels then you can use a search like this to find the manufacturer's advised pressures:

If you're on aftermarket rims and tyres, then it's really a case of trial and error to see what pressure feels best or if you notice any wear either down the middle of the tread or on the outside/inside of the tyres.
