Pirelli P Zero Nero

  • Drivers' needs and expectations are becoming more sophisticated,
    especially at the top-end of the car market. Increasingly, fast trackers,
    the primary target for Pirelli, require ultra-low profile tires with larger
    diameter wheels as well as higher tire load capacity. In line with its
    reputation for adapting quickly to market demands, Pirelli has introduced
    the P Zero Nero, a tire predominantly for the "soft" and "hard" tuning
    aftermarket, that takes its place in the P Zero Collection.

    P Zero Nero’s slogan is "works harder, plays harder", derived
    from the tire’s two major characteristics:

    * Driving Force
    The Extra Load capacity assists in maintaining the performance of both sports saloons with full equipment options and increasingly heavy and powerful tuned cars. New technology ensures a higher load carrying capacity without compromising driving comfort thanks to the adoption of a structure utilising new aramid fibre materials, thermally stable 0° nylon outer belts and more uniformly distributed stresses.

    * Driving Enjoyment
    A comprehensive range comprising many "pure" ZR sizes extends the limits of driving pleasure - no compromise dry and wet handling and powerful ABS braking with significantly reduced stopping distances. The exclusive styling and optimum safety features complete P Zero Nero’s racing pedigree.

    These features not only make the P Zero Nero the ideal choice
    for tire/wheel conversions but add a new dimension to the car
    that reflects the drivers individuality.

Yokohama Parada Spec-2

  • Yohohama's Parada Spec-2 redefines tuner-performance standards
    by exceeding expectations for performance and looks. The latest silica
    compounding delivers even higher performance thanks to a more evenly
    reinforced tread. This boosts acceleration, dry and wet traction with no
    sacrifice in wear. Stronger sidewall reinforcement, thanks to a new
    casing and bead construction, delivers more load carrying capacity.
    Steering response is also improved. New hot tuner sizes include 19"
    size additions, making the Parada the most complete street tuner line
    available today. Massive diagonal tread blocks maximize grip by putting
    more rubber on the road (low void ratio). Long lateral grooves, called
    helical design, evacuate water to boost wet traction. They also add a
    distinctive tuner look. Variable tread depth adds stability to adjoining tread
    blocks for enhanced handling. Ultra-low void shoulder design increases
    rubber to road contact and reduces tread squirm for noticeably sharper
    cornering. Rim protector bar helps protect your wheel investment against
    curb scuffing.
