Search for the Vega web site, they state what pressures you should be running

They're more grippy than SL7 from what i've seen once they're scrubbed in. they take long to 'come on' than the SL7's however
They're more consistant with lap times also however am still to find out how long they last From what i've heard its a test day and race day

I was just ckecking out Vega's website that compares them with each of their own tires.
http://www.vegatyres.com/en/pneumatici.htm I was wondering how they compared to other tire makes? ie Dunlops or Bridgestones. |

I used them for the first time on Sunday. I was the only kart on SL6's, the rest on SL7 and got it on the front row in qualifying, 0.3 off pole, so they're fast.
People say they take longer to 'come on' but i found in terms of warming them up they are about the same as SL7's, i had a blistering first lap in one of the heats so they must be grippy. They seem a lot more consistant than when ive used SL7's, its very easy to get consistant fast lap times and above all they seemed very very grippy Thumbs up from me
