Tyre pressures (again)

Hi all

I appreciate this has been discussed before, but:

Car is now 5 weeks old so went and checked them at the weekend. The label on the inside of the door reckons they should be 2.0 all the way around (IIRC for 19" run flats with just me and no luggage). This is lower than the 2.2 front/2.5 rear on my old E90 door sticker.

The current pressures were 2.5 which is what the factory or dealer had set them at. So, the question is, whose correct? I'm not fussed about ride handling, mpg and tyre wear etc (the tyres are covered under maintenance agreement with finance co), I want to know what's best for safety and 2.0 all the way round seems WAY too low.

And are there any dangers/pitfalls of keeping them at 2.5?

Thanks
