Pirelli Cinturato P7 Tyres
The P7 tyre marked a significant step forward in automotive tyre innovation, delivering notable improvements in both handling stability and road grip. Its design cleverly achieved a wider contact patch without sacrificing the sleek, low-profile aesthetic.
The Pirelli P7 was technologically advanced for its time, incorporating features including a nylon zero-degree belt to enhance performance. Initially classified with a V-speed rating, it was capable of maintaining speeds exceeding 149 mph. Today, updated models like the 245/45 VR 16 P7 boast a Y-speed rating, supporting safe high-speed performance up to 186 mph.
