22psi is very low. Radial tires run higher pressures than the old 
diagonal tires. For normal road use start with 2bar/29psi front and 
rear. If to harsh lower the pressure slightly but not below 25psi.
If to soggy/heavy on the steering/vague increase the pressure to a max. 
of about 35psi.
You can play around a bit with different front and rear pressures to 
induce more or less over-/understeer.
The higher the load and/or speed the higher the pressure.
There is no optimal tire pressure, it all depends on the circumstances 
like load, speed, road conditions etc.
