<\/p>\nThe Pirelli P Zero R and P Zero Trofeo RS, the original equipment tyres for sportscars, are now also available in the replacement market.<\/p>\n
According to Pirelli, both tyre models represent the pinnacle of the P Zero range and are the result of joint development with leading luxury car manufacturers, already applied to over 60 models, from European sportscars and supercars to American muscle cars.<\/p>\n
This quality has been confirmed by recent tests conducted by the independent publication Tyre Reviews, which named the P Zero R the number one performance tyre of 2026, describing it as an \u201cimpressive victory\u201d thanks to its dry and wet performance.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The P Zero R was developed primarily for sportscars and the top-performing models of the prestige segment, while the P Zero Trofeo RS is designed to ensure maximum track performance for sportscars and supercars, while also being road-legal.<\/p>\n
The P Zero R, thanks to newly formulated compounds, provides excellent grip on various asphalt types and in different weather conditions, with particular attention to wet driving, while its tread pattern minimizes road noise. This versatility is mainly due to the choice of materials in the tread compound.<\/p>\n
The performance of the P Zero R was recently confirmed by Tyre Reviews, which ranked it best among eight ultra-high-performance summer tyres in the 235\/35 R19 size. On dry roads, it was number one in both braking and handling.<\/p>\n
In wet tests, it won the wet handling trial and ranked at the top for braking: \u201cIt inspires great confidence even in extreme driving conditions,\u201d commented Tyre Reviews.<\/p>\n
The P Zero Trofeo RS is a semi-slick tyre whose main strengths are high performance and consistency. Even under the most demanding track conditions, it maintains high performance over time, allowing the driver to fully exploit the vehicle\u2019s potential for many laps.<\/p>\n
Since its debut, it has set records in various categories on the world\u2019s most challenging proving ground, the N\u00fcrburgring Nordschleife, demonstrating the high level of performance offered by this semi-slick tyre.<\/p>\n
Refined in Milan on Pirelli\u2019s R&D Center simulator, which allows virtual development of new products, the new sizes are produced using MIRS (Modular Integrated Robot System) robots and the most advanced innovations dedicated to ultra-high-performance tyre manufacturing.<\/p>\n
MIRS technology is used at the Italian plant in Settimo Torinese and the US plant in Rome, Georgia, where production of the new replacement range for the American market, particularly sportscars and local muscle cars, is concentrated.<\/p>\n
To meet the diverse needs of customers, Pirelli offers various innovative solutions for original equipment tyres: from Elect, designed to enhance the characteristics of electric vehicles; to RunFlat, which allows driving even after a puncture; to PNCS (Pirelli Noise Cancelling System), which reduces cabin noise through a special sound-absorbing material inside the tyre; and up to the Cyber Tyre system, which collects real-time information from in-tyre sensors to improve both safety and performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
