Simply use what the car was designed for. If you are hearing knocks it wants higher octane.
Interesting as the only choices where I live are 87, 89, and 93 octane. If you live in high altitude they did sell lower octane fuel and call it regular to premium with lower numbers but I bet they've stopped that, T
