I don't know how much it varies from ski to ski but I had my PEs at 3 back from center and they were sick for park/groomers.

You could always just keep them where they are, Theres no problem with that. But if you want to move them up.. go no more then about 5cm from center as that ski isnt really designed to be skied at dead centre.

they were about 3 back from true center, like from having equal tip and tail. In front of the core center.
