New P Zero Collezione for Ferrari Enzo

Pirelli and Ferrari are continuing their relationship of over 70 years, with the shared goal of keeping timeless classics on the road with safety and efficiency.

A new P Zero Corsa System, dedicated to the Ferrari Enzo, joins the Pirelli Collezione range, the line of tyres that equips both the most iconic ‘oldtimer’ and ‘youngtimer’ models.

The tyres for the Enzo enrich the Pirelli catalogue for Ferrari Classic, adding two new P Zero tyres to the two already available for the Ferrari F40 and F50.

For the Ferrari Enzo, which that dates from 2002, Pirelli has created a new P Zero Corsa System in 245/35 R19 size for the front and 345/35 R19 size for the rear. Like all tyres in the Collezione range, this product has an identical appearance to the original but is made with modern materials and technologies.

Designed in the early 2000s to be the sportiest of the road range, it has a specific structure that gives it maximum stability at high speeds and when cornering, allowing it to also be used on the track. The two different tread designs, directional for the front and asymmetric for the rear, also reduce aquaplaning.

The new tyre was tested using Ferrari test drivers, who rediscovered the same sporty character of the time, now combined with greater safety and reliability thanks to the use of the most up-to-date compounds.

The P Zero Corsa System tyres from the Collezione range are also available, in 245/35 R18 size for the front and 335/30 R18 at the rear for the Ferrari F50, described at the time as the road car closest to a Formula 1 racer that Maranello brand had ever built.

The ancestor of the F50 and the Enzo was the Ferrari F40, the first mass-produced car to use Pirelli P Zero as original equipment in 1987. Developed specifically for the car, this tyre brought in some important innovations: a rim size of 17 inches, unprecedented for a road car, different sizes on front and rear and technology dedicated to a car with a maximum speed of over 300km/h.

Now a version of the P Zero dedicated to the F40 is available in the Pirelli Collezione range in 245/40 R17 size for the front and 335/35 R17 at the rear. Among the main innovations of this version is the lettering on the side of the tyre which recalls the original script.
