Pirelli P Zero (PZ4) tires are high-performance summer tires that have been developed using Pirelli's expertise in Formula 1 racing. They are designed specifically for exclusive and high-performance vehicles. Originally designed as the standard tire for certain luxury and sports cars, the P Zero (PZ4) is now available as a replacement tire as well. Pirelli does not cover tires that develop compound cracking when used in temperatures below 45° Fahrenheit (7° Celsius). Therefore, it is not recommended to use the P Zero (PZ4) in near-freezing temperatures, snow, or on ice. Each P Zero (PZ4) tire is customized for its intended application. The tread compound is made from a special mixture of silica and carbon black, which can be adjusted to meet the specific requirements of different vehicles. The tread pattern is also tailored for either sports cars or luxury vehicles, with the focus on dry handling and grip for sports cars, and improved comfort and noise reduction for luxury vehicles. All versions of the tire have wide grooves to enhance water evacuation and prevent hydroplaning. The internal structure of the P Zero (PZ4) includes twin steel belts that are reinforced by a hybrid nylon and Kevlar ply. The tire casing can be made from different materials, such as polyester or rayon, and can have symmetric or asymmetric construction. This allows the tire designers to further optimize the tire's performance based on the characteristics of the specific vehicle. Some sizes of the P Zero (PZ4) come with additional technologies. The Seal Inside technology uses an adhesive sealant to repair punctures, allowing the vehicle to continue operating without losing air pressure. The Noise Cancelling System (PNCS) is another feature available in select sizes, which reduces cabin noise by adding a layer of sound-absorbing foam to the inner liner of the tire. In conclusion, Pirelli P Zero (PZ4) tires are high-performance summer tires designed for exclusive and high-performance vehicles. They offer a customized and optimized performance based on the specific application and vehicle. It is important to note that these tires are not suitable for use in near-freezing temperatures, snow, or on ice.
