P Zero Silver - Pirelli's road-legal tyre based on F1
ERJ staff report (DS)
Milan - Pirelli has launched the P Zero Silver, a tyre aimed drivers with a sporty driving style who cover more than 20,000 kilometres per year. Pirelli said, “This is the first Ultra High Performance road tyre to be directly derived from Formula Oneâ€.
The new tyre expands the P Zero range, and marks the first in a series of highly specialised Pirelli road car tyres, ensuring the maximum level of performance even after long distances. Thanks to the same processes that are used in Formula One, Pirelli underlines some of the key characteristics of the entire P Zero range through the new Silver - with the emphasis on durability.
The P Zero Silver will be produced in eight sizes, for 19 to 20 inch wheels, and will be available as a limited edition in European markets from April 2012.
