Description
The Pirelli P Zero PZ4 is an ultra-high-performance summer tire designed for sports cars and high-end vehicles. It’s known for its excellent dry handling, sharp steering response, and good braking performance. The PZ4 is a result of Pirelli’s collaboration with top car manufacturers, resulting in a tire designed to perfectly match the performance characteristics of specific vehicles. It features a high silica content for superior safety in wet conditions and a specialized tread pattern for efficient water evacuation.
Here’s a more detailed overview:
- Ultra-High Performance:
The PZ4 is designed for sporty driving, offering excellent handling, grip, and responsiveness.
The high silica content in the tire compound enhances grip and safety in wet conditions.
The blocky shoulder design provides increased tread stiffness and lateral stability, resulting in sharper steering response.
Wide longitudinal grooves in the tread pattern effectively channel water away from the contact patch, reducing the risk of aquaplaning.
- Low Rolling Resistance:
Optimized pitch sequence and siping design contribute to reduced noise and rolling resistance.
- Homologation:
The PZ4 is often original equipment on many high-performance vehicles, meaning it’s specifically engineered and approved by car manufacturers for optimal performance on their models.
- Tire Weight Reduction:
The PZ4 is designed with weight reduction in mind, which can contribute to improved vehicle performance.
- Consistent Performance:The PZ4 is designed to maintain consistent performance throughout its lifespan.
