PZERO NERO

The PZero Nero (ne' ro' Italian for black) Max Performance "summer" tire is a member of Pirelli's "PZero Collection" family of Max Performance tires. In addition to the PZero Nero, the "PZero Collection" also includes the PZero Rosso (ro' so' Italian for red) and the PZero System Directionale and Asimmetrico tires (many with a yellow logo) for sports cars, coupes and sedans. The PZero Nero was developed to work harder so the driver could play harder exploiting the sporting character of their high performance car. Like all summer tires, PZero Nero tires are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice.

On the outside, the PZero Nero features a silica and carbon black enhanced tread compound molded into a subtle asymmetric, wide rib tread design to increase the rigidity of the tread to resist deformation and enhance grip and steering response on a variety of road surfaces while enhancing resistance to irregular wear and generating low noise levels. The tire's circumferential grooves are optimized in their position and width to maximize dry road performance while enhancing hydroplaningresistance. On the inside, the PZero Nero features twin steel belts reinforced by zero degree nylon to complement a lightweight aramid internal structure that resists deformation at high speeds.
