My GTI came fitted with 17" alloys with 225/45/17 tyres

I have now upgraded to 18" alloys with 225/40/18 tyres what pressure should I put in them

But the info on the fuel filler cap is for the standard wheels and tyres

I'm running on the original 18" Monzas and my tyre pressure states 2.4bar front and rear.
