You need to know how much fluid is in your tires. If it its 10 percent air and 90 percent fluid you ratio will be 9 to 1. If the manufacture recommends 30 psi you need to multiply 30x9 which will be 270 lbs. You should divide that by 18 and multiply x 2(since you have 2 wheels) and pressurize accordingly. Of cousre this may not work if you have different size tires. For Olivers pressurize in accordance with the manufactures recommendations.. Stem should be at the top but doesn't have to be if you have a wet gage. Don't, I repeat, don't use a business card as a pressure indicator. Since tires are designed differently it would be foolish and dangerous...Good luck..
