Default New P-Zero race tire soon!!

P-Zero Corsa:
The P Zero Corsa is the new dual purpose road & track tire form the Pirelli P Zero collection. Destined to replace the existing P Zero Rosso technologies to take the concept of "ultimate performance road tire" another stage forward.
Being essentially a road legal track tire, sold mainly to competition drivers, the P Zero Corsa has been able to take the most extreme route to maximum performance, without any compromises forced by needs of comfort, quiet running, etc.
The most significant feature of the P Zero Corsa is the fact that its tread pattern is evidently derived from a racing tire and is both directional and asimmetric in design. The asimmetric concept allows an outer shoulder area which is almost racing slicks, therefor offering maximum adhesion particularly in hard cornering, whilst the directional cuts in teh center and inner part of the tread recover the wet handling and anti-aquaplaining features necessary for maximum all-weather performance.

"some" sizes...
255-40-17 25.12"
265-35-18 25.35"
285-30-18 24.92"
295-30-18 24.97"
315-30-18 25.44"

6/32" of tread depth.
More info as it becomes available will be posted on the site.

Will these be considered a street tire, or an R compound DOT-type tire, like the Kuhmo Victoracer? Any idea on pricing? Thanks

Actually not soon...now. They are ready to go.

These tires do get DOT approval for street driving but they are essentially a road legal race tire per Pirelli. Pricing is available via email. We will have all of the sizes and prices listed on our site soon.

These also come with 6/32nds of tread.
