P ZERO (PZ4)
The perfect fit for every car performance

P ZERO (PZ4) is the Ultra High Performance product that combines Pirelli’s background in competitive motorsport with our alliance with top car manufacturers. P ZERO (PZ4) has a range developed with the most prestigious OEMs that are able to meet customization needs, in terms of size, technology, and seasonality.

Pirelli P Zero (PZ4)Each Original Equipment marked P Zero (PZ4) tire is tailored to the specific application. A special silica and carbon black tread compound can be adjusted according to the vehicle manufacturer''s needs to deliver the desired combination of wet or dry grip and handling, comfort, tread life and fuel economy.

The tread compound is molded into an asymmetric tread design featuring an outer shoulder that differs based on whether the tire is intended for original equipment use on a sports car or a luxury vehicle, with the sports car''s outer shoulder focused on dry handling, grip and lateral stability, while the outer shoulder of a luxury vehicle tire is tuned for improved comfort, noise and lateral hydroplaning resistance. Non-original equipment P Zero (PZ4) tires feature the sports car outer shoulder design, and all versions utilize wide, circumferential grooves for efficient water evacuation and hydroplaning resistance.

The tire''s internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by a hybrid nylon and Kevlar ZeroDegree cap ply. Based on the desired performance characteristics of the original equipment application, the tire casing will be 2-ply polyester or 1- or 2-ply rayon, with either symmetric or asymmetric construction. This customization allows the tire designers to further fine-tune the tire to match the personality of the automobile for which it is engineered.

Limited sizes of the P Zero (PZ4) are available with Pirelli''s Seal Inside technology. Seal Inside utilizes an adhesive sealant that coats around the base of the embedded object or is drawn through the resulting hole, sealing the punctured area and allowing the vehicle to continue operating without losing air pressure.

Limited sizes of the Pirelli P Zero (PZ4) are available with Pirelli Noise Cancelling System (PNCS), which involves the manufacturer adhering a layer of sound-absorbing foam to the inner liner of the tire to reduce cabin noise in the vehicle.
