The race-inspired Pirelli P Zero is the tire you need for spirited, enthusiastic driving, as well as day-to-day commutes and road trips. The P Zero features a silica-enhanced tread compound for great grip in wet conditions as well as long wear. Wet-weather traction is enhanced by a set of circumferential grooves that channel water away from the tire's footprint to resist hydroplaning, with S-shaped grooves toward the shoulder that aid in pressure distribution for cornering and braking. The P Zero's tread and sidewall are rigid to resist high G forces (thanks to steel belts and a combination of polyamide and aramid cord), and Pirelli's Noise Cancelling System (a layer of foam in the subtread) helps keep road noise low. NOTE: the Pirelli P Zero is a summer tire and not intended for cold temperatures, below 40-45 degrees F.
