Default Golf GTi Tyre Pressure

Does anyone know what the nominal tyre pressure for a golf GTi should be?
The tyre is a Continental 195/50R15. Also does anyone know the weight of a
typical Golf and the axle weight or weight distribution?

Thanks!

Should be inside your filler cap or on your door pillar.

In the US, the "tyre" pressure is listed variously depending on the
year, wheel size and type of tire. So, contact your dealership if it is
not on the door pillar or fuel cap. Anything you get here will be
generic as you neglected to tell us the year and equipment specific to
your GTi.

Do a search on "curb weight" for that car and year, you should get all
that.
