I have my Six set to 18psi all round. Also make sure your ride height is about 5.5inches front and rear, with around 8 to 9 clicks on the dampers.

If they're 13" then they should be similar to A048 Yokos which I run on my Locost R1. With the Yokos on the road Id start at around 18-20psi and play with them from there. If you're going on track and pushing hard then you may want to start a little lower, as you generally aim for around 20psi hot, so maybe 16-18psi cold.

If you find one corner / side going over pressure when hot due to the nature of the track you can always drop the cold pressures on those tyres to compensate, they dont all have to be the same. Similarly if you find they start sliding around too much after a while, they're probably going over pressure so Id generally drop another PSI or two to see if it helps, although personally I wouldnt go below about 15psi cold.

If they're 15" tyres then Im not sure as you may need them slightly harder due to the lower profile sidewall, but I cant imagine they'd be that much different.
