Pirelli P-Zeroes

Post by AveZ4coop » Wed Dec 23, 2020 5:57 pm

I have just had a pair of Pireeli P-Zeroes fitted to the rears on my coupe (always had Michelin PS 4's until now). I have to say I am very impressed with the level of grip. Has anyone else on here got experience of the P zeroes? I am wondering mainly about wear as I am more than happy with the traction.

Pirelli P-Zero is a range of tyres...just as Michelin Pilot Sport or Goodyear F1 are.
  • Which specific model of tyre have you fitted?
  • How long have they been on the car?
  • How bad were the tyres you took off?
My mate swears by Pirelli P7000s on his e34 M5, but I hated them. He also swore by Toyos on his R33 GTR until I persuaded him to try the Michelin Supersports (he got twice the mileage and better performance in all conditions including the Ring).

Ive had a lot of Pirelli tyres on many different cars , always found them decidedly average especially on warm wet bends :cry: some versions utterly lethal ( Cinturato springs to mind ) however the latest version Pzero PZ4 is impressive , id tick them 10 out of 10 regarding comfort , noise , dry / wet grip , rim protection , longevity i can't comment on :P

I have to agree here, for the best performance "road" tyre you have to be looking at Michelin Pilot Supersports, the MPS4S or the Eagle F1s. I found the Pirelli I experienced reasonable in the dry, fast wearing, not super in the wet and quite loud.
