This a link to the pdf of the Pirelli tire guide. Technical data is from page 196 onward. You should be able to find your tyre there. Pressures shown are in bar, so you may wish to convert to PSI.

There is scope for personal preference tho. I typically run something along the lines of 32 front, 36 rear on my road bikes.
