✨ Key Technical Features
-
🛡️ BMW Star Mark (*) Engineering:
Specifically co-developed with BMW to ensure total synergy with the car’s electronic stability and suspension systems. This OE-spec version provides a more “connected” steering feel compared to the standard replacement PZ4.
-
💨 Run-Flat Technology (RFT):
Utilizes self-supporting reinforced sidewalls. In the event of a total pressure loss, you can continue driving for up to 80 km at a maximum speed of 80 km/h. This is essential for safety on Singapore’s busy expressways, allowing you to reach a workshop without stopping on the shoulder.
-
🏎️ F1-Derived Bead Technology:
The internal structure incorporates a specialized high-rigidity bead compound that improves lateral stability. This results in surgical steering response, allowing for rapid direction changes and high cornering speeds.
-
🧪 High Silica Summer Compound:
The PZ4 utilizes an advanced silica-rich compound that ensures Class-A wet braking. This provides short stopping distances and massive grip levels during heavy tropical downpours.
-
🔇 Customised Tread Design:
Features an optimized pitch sequence and siping design to reduce rolling resistance and noise. Even with its aggressive performance character, it maintains a refined cabin environment during highway cruising on the KPE.
