Yes. 30psi COLD is a good place to start for street use. Your particular tires may vary. If a pyrometer isn't available, it's pretty much just seat-of-the-pants on how the car feels and the wear pattern on the tires. I ran 30 front, 32 rear in the 185/70 14 A008Rs for the street and bumped them to 36-38 all around for the track/autox.
I believe that the 44psi marked on your tires is the manufacturers maximum inflation pressure.
