I ran the last 12+ events (on a 2 driver car, so that's more like 24 + 
events on a 1 driver car) on a set of A032Rs and found that the best 
tire pressures are 35 (hot) for the fronts and 45-46 (hot) in the back.  
The smaller contact patch in the back helps a bit to rotate my fwd car, 
while the lower front setting gives good grip.  The tire wear is 
excellent because I can still get at least 5 more events out of them, 
although they barely have any tread left now.  For your M3, you should 
definitely run mid to high 30s in the back for good traction and mid 30' 
in the front.
