Pirelli P Zero Nero GT Tire Review & Rating

Last modified Aug. 13, 2018 by Tire Reviews And More

Designed by Pirelli to provide more balanced performance, the P Zero Nero GT summer tire features the latest in tire technology for increased performance and longer tread life. Created for drivers of sport coupes and sedans, this newest Pirelli model builds off the widely popular P Zero Nero and adds some unique twists.

An all-new silica added tread compound not only gives the tire improved traction on both wet and dry road surfaces, but has added wear resistance for a longer overall tread life. Pirelli has stated you should expect upwards of 30,000 miles or more out of the tread, which for a high performance tread design is much longer than most competitor tires.

The asymmetric tread pattern sports a larger footprint for increased handling and cornering grip, while also providing quicker steering response. An added benefit to this unique tread design is that you’ll notice a lower level of outside road noise from the tire. Four circumferential grooves and the added silica combine to maximize traction on wet road surfaces and reduce the risk of hydroplaning, which is a big plus on this model.

Inside the tire you will find two steel belts that are nylon reinforced for added strength and durability at higher speeds. Rayon body plies further increase handling and stability. Sizes are available from 16 to 19 inches, and V, W and Y speed ratings.

Pros

Traction and handling on dry or wet pavement
Steering response
Braking and acceleration
Low road noise
Longer lasting tread life

Cons

A little extra ride comfort

Overall Thoughts

Pirelli has put a lot of efforts into the new P Zero Nero GT and it shows. The newer tread compound gives this model very good handling and cornering grip on dry surfaces, while the added silica increases grip on wet roads. We like the faster steering response and feel this model provides as well.

While the ride is quiet and more than acceptable, we would like to see a bit more comfort. This will likely not be an issue for most drivers. Tread life has been addressed through the new compound and looks to be a nice improvement.

Overall, we like this tire and find it delivers solid performance and value for the money.
