Running Michelin PS2s on 19" rims 33 fr & 35 rear sound about right?

I saw a post from Flemke on the trackday forum (I think), he recommended monitoring the pressures throughout the day and adjusting to keep at a reasonable road operating temperature.

From memory set pressure cold as in handbook, drive to track, take reading which is effectively the base level for normal use and check before each stint to keep them at this level.

I have my first track day in my E46 M3 at Brands on the 17th Apr and plan to follow the above unless someone has a better suggestion.
