My front tires have pressures of 35 and 36 and back pressure are 42 and 36.

Is this safe to drive on a highway?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

It should be fine to drive. However, you really should follow the manufacturer's recommendations. If you open the driver's door, there should be a label indicating the original tire size and recommended pressures. That is where I would set the pressure. Since the front tires and one of the rear tires are very close, I would just make all of them 35 psi until you can locate the label I'm referring to and set them to the manufacturer's specs.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe.
