I have spoke to Pirelli on two different occasions and they told me for the Metzler Race-Tec which are similar in construction to your tires and the slicks to go with 29 front and 27 rear cold. The minimum is 28 front and 26 rear.

These tires are very different from the Diablo Corsa's which you can do 33 front and 34 rear but some people get confused and run lower pressure in the Diable corsa's and they burn up.

We had to drop out as Mary is sick and we have not been able to get the bikes ready as we were out of town and I just changed jobs. Have fun out there.
