I've not used Pilot, but have used Power One. For them (as for most 160/120), 30psi front and 28 rear should be a good place to start in the dry. 35 for both in the wet.

They were pretty good. Got up to temperature quickly and no worse grip than Supercorsas. I thought the wear was a little bit quicker than on the corsas. I did one meeting with them (qualifying and 4 races), plus qualifying and 2 races and the rear was gone (bits torn out on right side). I was still more or less on my best pace time-wise, but the rear was sliding around a bit. Normally I get a another race or so out of a rear.

The front is pretty good - it is the V-type, which feels odd as you tip in, because the profile is higher (hence the 'V'), but then the contact patch is bigger. As per usual, the wear on that is less than on the rear.

And they're £60 cheaper than Supercorsas. And I got my best ever results on them (not time-wise, but position-wise ), so I'm a fan so far.

I run 27psi front and rear for racing.
