Description

Pirelli P Zero “PZ5” (275/35R19 100Y XL EU)

The AI-Engineered 5th Generation. Peak Performance & Longevity.

The PZ5 is engineered to be a “Perfect Fit” for premium and prestige vehicles. Pirelli focused heavily on bridging the gap between track-level grip and the daily refinement expected in luxury cabins, significantly improving upon the wear rates of previous generations.

✨ Key Technical Advances (vs. PZ4)

• 🤖 AI-Optimized Tread Geometry:Pirelli used Artificial Intelligence to simulate millions of road scenarios. The result is a new “shrinking groove” and progressive sipe design that reduces cabin noise by a noticeable margin while ensuring the tyre maintains a consistent contact patch under extreme lateral loads.
• 📈 20% Higher Mileage:One of the most significant upgrades for 2025 is durability. A new “Tailored Plasticizer Blend” and improved compound mobility mean the PZ5 resists wear far better than the PZ4, addressing one of the common complaints about performance tyres.
• 🌧️ 100% “A” Rated Wet Performance:Pirelli has achieved a Class A rating for wet braking across the entire replacement range.6 The main grooves feature a specific inclination angle designed to increase lateral stability in deep water, virtually eliminating aquaplaning at highway speeds.
• 🏎️ Motorsport Compound Heritage:The rubber compound utilizes resins derived directly from Pirelli’s Formula 1 experience. This allows the tyre to reach its optimal operating temperature quickly, providing immediate “bite” and feedback through the steering wheel.
• 🔇 Acoustic Comfort:Even without the PNCS (foam) technology in every unit, the base PZ5 tread is designed to disrupt harmonic resonance. Early 2025 tests report it to be one of the quietest tyres in the UUHP (Ultra-Ultra High Performance) category.

📊 EU Label Ratings

• Wet Grip: A (The highest safety standard)

• Fuel Efficiency: C (Typical for a wide performance tyre)

• External Noise: B (72dB)

The Pirelli PZ5 is the current industry benchmark for 2025. It is the ideal choice for drivers who want the most advanced technology available for their sports car without sacrificing the ability to use the car as a quiet, long-distance cruiser.
